6/12/19 I worked for Dr. Novak for 22 years, and I still think about him every day. He was the best boss and kindest person I have ever know. He will never be forgotten, nor will his sweet wife, Penny.

Mrs. Novak & Pat. So sorry to hear of loss of Dr Novak. I remember the fun times on Nolan Dr. (Senior float for homecoming), and the hugs from Sunday Mass at SJV. Dr. Novak was the nicest gruff man I knew. He was really a softie at heart. RIP Dr Novak.

How sad it mad me to learn of the passing of Doctor Novak whom I admired for his commitment to public service as well as for his dedication to the visually impaired. He was my own eye doctor for many years. I considered him a friend who always had some humor or wisdom to share. My condolences to family and friends of this wonderful man. Rest in Peace, Ed.
