Not sure what to say?

I will always fondly remember Simon for hiring me to work at his various construction sites during the summers to help me pay for my college education. He was a great guy whom I admired very much.

May Simon's name be remembered as a blessing. He touched so many lives in such a positive way.

Eternal Rest with God for Mr.Simon Konover----a great American and Man--from a friend of his late Dear niece Harriett--a UCONN grad......

I have had the honor of working for Konover South for the past 10 years. I was especially blessed in that I have had several conversations with Mr. Konover over the years. Compassion, honesty, integrity, are all defined as "Simon Konover". My prayers are with his family today and always.

Please join the Konover Family as we celebrate the life and contributions of one of the pillars of our community.

Dearest Doris, Michael & Steven,
There are no words of comfort to offer in your time of profound loss. Just know that you are in my prayers and that God will supply you with the strength to endure the sadness and emptiness that you are left to live with. May your pain be overshadowed with happy memories of all the great times you shared and may you be a comfort to one another.
With much love,
Beth Boris

The world is better for his having been in it, and we will miss him. God Bless you, Simon. Charlie and Edie Regulbuto

I was lucky to have been one of Mr. Konover's employees. He was fair and honest man and it was an honor to have worked for him. Thoughts and prayers to the Konover family, he will be missed but not forgotten.

I HAD THE PLEASURE OF MEETING SIMON IN MY BUSINESS OF REPRESENTING FARMINGTON VALLEY MALL AND THE ENFIELD MALL.
HE WAS SO INTERESTED IN ALL THE DETAILS EVEN THE MINOR ITEMS.
NO MATTER HOW BUSY HE WAS HE ALWAYS FOUND TIME TO DISCUSS A BUSINESS SITUATION WITH ME.
I WAS A BETTER PERSON FOR MEETING SUCH A WONDERFUL BUSINESS MAN.
