He was the head of that shrine, to which he came from the Monastery of Tronoš, for more than 17 years. He rested, right at Waxers, after the liturgy, Easter lunch and socializing with the monks and the faithful. Less than an hour before his death, his words were recorded, solemn, warm, selected on our happiest party and his knowledge. He just fell asleep “like a lamb” after that and didn’t wake up.

He is one of those monks who gave a great seal to the return of the people to their faith, especially among the young people to whom he always had advice, comfort and support to offer.
– I am happy that I had the strength to come to our Throne, to this great jubilee and to the canonization of Archimandrite Stefan, but also because our Patriarch Irinej greeted me warmly and asked me about health and Lelic, when I appreciate and respect him immensely, even before. he became a bishop, said the author of these lines, “Father Habacuc, when he attended the jubilee of the Monastery of Tronoša of the 7th century, to which he dedicated most of his life, where the inhabitants of Jadra always saw him as their familiar more born, an old monk, to whom the Church and the believers were everything in life.
He really “carried” the people of Loznica and the Adriatic “in his heart”.

– Honor to all, but Father Habakkuk, in his life and work, is an irreplaceable person, not only in this part of Serbia, but also much wider, because he is a man who knew how to worship, and great people like Tronoša and Lelic , elevate it to the extent that they are, true, holy places of the living God, on whose path our Habakkuk walked with dignity, honor and dedication, who did not accidentally present himself to God at Easter, because he wonderfully told the believers about the Resurrection after lunch. of our Lord Jesus Christ – says Dr. Ranković.
