Maja, the widow of the late musician Vladimir Blazhev-Pancho, shared an emotional tribute to her younger son, Marjan. Posting a photograph of Marjan on a football field wearing a pink goalkeeper jersey during the ‘Ilinden Cup’, she captioned the image, ‘My hero.’
Vladimir Blazhev-Pancho passed away on October 14, 2025, following months of treatment for injuries sustained in a fire at the ‘Pulse’ nightclub in Kočani. He is survived by his wife, Maja, and his two sons, Andrej and Marjan.

He noted that while his eldest son, Andrej, is an avid football player, Marjan was the ‘neighborhood mascot’ with the potential to follow in his father's footsteps. Blazhev-Pancho emphasized his commitment to raising his sons with honesty and realism.
