Slovenia
Another postcard sent to the Topolovec family - again it says "fathers folks fam". Still assuming they are August's parents and siblings. Again, no idea what it says on the back. so if anyone can/wants to translate it for me that would be fantastic.

A photo of a postcard sent from Yugoslavia to the Topolovec's in Utah. I don't know if "Fathers folks fam" means August's parents and siblings or if they are extended family. The two adults in the middle resemble the older couple in another postcard. So I'm assuming they are Marko and Franca (Vinceljak) Topolovec and August's siblings. And I'm guessing August's brother Stefan Topolovec is who sent the postcard.
If anyone can/wants to translate this for me that would be amazing :)

These are Juliana (Julia) Čufer Topolovec's siblings. I have no idea what their names are or if they immigrated to the U.S. from what was once Yugoslavia.
