Not sure what to say?

I am so blessed that God Almighty gave me this man as my father. Daddy was the finest of men. He was my first "picture" of what God is to me as my sovereign Heavenly Father. And oh what a "masterpiece" Daddy was!

Mama, you are the finest of women. The best among wives, to be sure. Truly an exemplary, perfect wife. You were always loving and supportive. Now, as a grown woman, I can see how trying that may have been at times. It makes me admire you even more. You comport yourself with...

Deepest condolences,May you be comforted with peace during this difficult time (Phil 4:6&7).

I remember Mr. Kowitz as a very caring man, always with a huge smile on his face, even if he was trying to deal with us kids in the West Hills Youth Group. His sons Norm and Tom were my age, and we had a wonderful time growing up together. Thanks for so many happy memories. I will be praying for the family, but I do know where Mr. Kowitz is. Walking on streets of Gold with the Lord that he loved so much. Lori Abraham Halverson

We will never forget you, my sweet Grandpa. The way you loved and lived has influenced me as well as countless others. A man who put God, country and family before all else. The finest and most honorable man I've ever known. I love you. God bless you.

I am so very blessed to be your grand son and to have talked to you on your last days with the family. I am so glad that I made that Thursday evening better for you. God Bless you Grandpa and may you always live in peace with Jesus.

I am remembering a great and gentle man that I always had a deep respect for. I will always know and remember him as "Mr. Kowitz". My wife and I send our sincere condolences to the entire Kowitz family and will keep you all in our prayers during this difficult time.
