“There is comfort in honouring someone your own way.”
This woman also has a Serbian coat of arms tattooed on her upper middle back.
Within this tattoo is her father’s signature along with his birth and death date in Roman numerals.
The placement of her tattoo was chosen “because I wanted him watching my back.

that’s where it seemed fitting to me.”
