HONEY,
I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'RE GONE! THANK YOU FOR 61 YEARS OF FANTASTIC MEMORIES.
LOVE,

Dear Kovach Family,
I am honored and privileged to have been a neighbor of the Kovach Family. "Mr." Kovach had a unique way of making me feel very special and a part of his own family. I will always hold dear the wonderful and precious memories I have of Mr. Kovach; his unforgetable laugh, playing Hawaiian music by his swimming pool, singing "Little Lulu" to me, taking me to the Police picnics, playing croquet in his yard and, of course, the love he had for his family.

Fellow worker and pilot remembering check rides given by John who was a true professional in all his endeavors and will be in my thoughts.

Rick, Lonnie and family, John was a wonderful guy and I will never forget him. 5K was a great place and I truly enjoyed everyone who was associated with it during my time there. Jan and our kids share your sorrow and remember the fun we had with you and John over the years. John helped guide me on the purchase of 737PW, and also gave me my instrument check ride.

Lonnie and family,

I am so sorry for your loss. John was such a kind man. He will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
If not for John and Lonnie I would have never become a pilot.

Thank you.

Dear Lonnie, Rick, John, Cindy and family,

I just want to express my deepest sympathy to all of you. The world has lost a wonderful man and Heaven has gained an angel. John has been given his wings to fly for eternity. All we can do now is wait and believe we will earn our wings one day and join him. It was nice being your next door neighbor for all those years. The Kovach family is a wonderful family to know and I'm glad we had the chance. Stay strong! Always remember that you...
