Kozusko Family,

I also taught in Penn Hills, and I knew Andy for many years. I retired one year before Andy, and last year we talked often about the necessary retirement procedures. I hope my insight concerning retirement helped Andy make his decisions. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

With deepest sympathy,

Pat Lorinc

As a former Forbes student, please except my condolences. Mr. Kozusko always made time to talk no matter where, when or what he was doing. He will surely be missed by all.

May god bless.

My sincere condolences to Andy's family. I grew up with Andy playing ball on the local playgrounds around Penn Hills. He was a great person and one heck of a ballplayer. His fastball scared many a batter, myself included.

He will be missed.

Andy was a wonderful coworker at Forbes. I enjoyed working with him over the years and he will be greatly missed. He always had a kind word and was dedicated to those kids. God Bless his family.

I'm so very sorry to hear of Mr. Kozusko's passing. I had him first through fifth for health and gym. He was a very helpful teacher and he will be missed. I wish his family and friends the best. Everyone is in my prayers.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

There is an appointed time for everything, and a time for every affair under the heavens. A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to uproot the plant. A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to tear down, and a time to build. A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance. A time to scatter stones, and a time to gather them; a time to embrace, and a time to be far from embraces. A time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away. A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to be silent, and a time to speak. A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

There is a time for everything and so everything happens for its on reason. Keep faith.

Andy was a tremendous teacher. As a parent of former students, he was always there to lend a helping hand even before being asked. I remember him going out of his way for many of the events I managed while involved at the school. He will be missed!

I am very sorry to hear about the passing of Mr. Kozusko. I am a former student of his from Roberts School. Everyone has a handful of teachers that you remember forever for their inspiration, dedication and because they sincerely cared for their students. Mr. Kozusko was one of those teachers to me and may God bless his family during this time of sorrow.
