Uncle Chuck was one of my favorite uncles. I always thought he was so handsome. I loved dancing the Polka with him and listening to his stories in his thick accent. I'm glad I was blessed with his visit in 2005 on the beach in North Carolina. Till we meet again. Love lives forever. Karen (Kozar) Gentile

Chuck Kozar- Was a customer of ours. He always had a heart of Gold, and always a smile on his face. May he rest in peace.

I was sorry to hear of your loss. I did not know Mr Kozar, but noticed he was from Dauby, WI. My grandparents lived on a farm across the tracks from St. Peters, and my father, Bruno Zehren was born and raised on that farm. Before he passed away, we had a long talk about his youth, and the Kozar name was mentioned. I am currently doing a genealogy study on my dad, and was wondering if you had any photos or stories you might share with me. We have a cottage outside of Ashland, and attend St. Peters church when we can.
