She told me, he was very charismatic and disciplined. I interprete my and my brother's and sister's deepest condolence to his stepchildren, Graham and Annette. Rest in peace Uncle Ákos.

KOVACS (Akos) OAM:
You were an intimidating man at first but as you put us through the rigorous pace of climbing the rope, jumping over vaults and other gymnastics activities, our confidence grew and so did our respect for you. We are better men because of your PE lessons and to this day, you still intimidate the hell out of me. Grant Bridge

KOVACS (Akos): "Sir"
A family friend, then teacher, then personal friend. You helped teach so many boys to be men, including me. Thank you. I am sorry to say goodbye from so far away and that it was so long since I last saw you. You will always be "Sir".
