The Kovac family is part of the fabric of our family's memories. We wish you all love and prayers and know Mr. Kovac is resting in God's loving arms (and perhaps enjoying some of my mom's cooking!)

I am at a loss for words. Prayers are with the entire family. God bless Him and his soul. May he be in peace. Charlie has always had such a large heart. He always enjoyed being one of the kids telling jokes and teaching his tricks. He was a man of God and gave so much love, laughs and wisdom.You will be missed. Thank you for all of the memories. Always, Brittney L. Rudd Granddaughter of Milt and Louise Rupert

The Manhattan College alumni community shares the grief, and is now praying for our fellow alumni and the family at this time. The Alumni Office has been informed. As well as the Jasper Jottings community that I personally can reach. We are all a little poorer now. "No man is an island, entire of itself ... any mans death diminishes me". We are sorry for your loss.
