Edward "Bear" Koczwara

I cannot believe it is 5 years since my Brothet Bear passed. Time passed quickly but memories last forever. Frank Casper Koczwara

May my brother Bear rest in peace.

My Deepest Condolences. May God Bless You and Yours. I had the pleasure to care for Ed for a nearly a year. He had a gentle soul, I always looked forward to seeing him. He would laugh at me when trying to teach me polish, we would mostly talk sports and he always reminded me to watch the last step. He will be deeply missed!

Diane I am so sorry to hear of your husband passing.My deepest condolences to you and your family My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Please accept our most sincere condolences...

Although knicknamed "Bear", he was a kind, gentle man. I grew up just a few houses down the street, 20 years his junior and have nothing but fond memories of Edward. Very helpful to the us kids who wanted to play baseball and football at the field. After Invader football victories, he'd drive around the neighborhood honking his horn. So sorry for your loss.

So sorry to hear of your loss. May God Bless and keep Ed in His most tender loving care.

Such a sad loss to you and your family, may your memories fill your hearts.

Dear Diane & Family:

Jill and I would like to express our deepest condolences on Ed"s passing.

My brother Bear was a very proud member of the 1960 West Scranton Invaders Team that won the Eastern Conference Champion. I remember him playing guard and linebacker and doing the kickoffs in that game against Hazleton High School. He played most of the game with lip laceration that required 5 stitches after the game. He was a gamer and a very proud West Scranton...
