As I new Mr. Coventry, you couldn't help but like the man, always courtise, smiling from ear to ear, and never let his health get in the way. Donna, may you know that you have friends to lean on when in need.

To the Family of Mr. Coventry:
I grew up knowing him as I lived in Langford and went to North Collins Schools. I have run into Mr. Coventry a number of times since I moved to Gowanda and was so amazed that with all of the students he dealt with throughout his career, he remembered me. He was an influential man in my life growing up and I feel blessed that I was able to tell him that and to give him a hug.You have my condolences and prayers. God Bless You all.
