Jerome "Jerry" Kovac

Dear Aunt Marilee and all my cousins....
I am so sad and sorry for your loss. My only regret is that I hadn't been in more contact with Uncle Jerry and Aunt Marilee, and my cousins. I'll forever remember Uncle Jerry with great fondness and love, as well as Aunt Marilee.

We are so sorry for your loss and have only the fondest memories of Jerry...his smile, chuckles and funny stories. He always had the most positive temperament and was fun to be around.

Marilee and family,
We are so sorry to here of Jerry's passing. There were so many great memories growing up around Clifton Park, and Jerry and the Kovacs were a huge part of it. Always making us kids laugh. He will be greatly missed.

Marrilee and Family
Just learned of Jerry's passing from neighors. Truly sorry to hear this. Just talked to Jerry a week ago and, like all of us he was looking forward to summer to be outside. My sons will be surprised as well. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and the Family.

Marilee
I was so saddened to hear of your loss. I will miss Jerry's "through the fence" conversations that he and I used to have. He was always so upbeat, friendly and loved to joke.

Dear Aunt Marilee and Family,
It is so sad to hear of Uncle Jerry's passing. I wanted to drive down, but the snow changed those plans. Please know my heart is with you at this time of loss. I can't think of Uncle Jer without thinking of his smile - he truly smiled with his whole face and his whole being. And his smile was so infectious! Thanks for posting the slide show. Love and prayers to you all.

Marilee and Family,

We were so sorry to hear about Jerry. He will be greatly missed in the neighborhood. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Marilee and family, I am so sorry to hear about Jerry. Always enjoyed seeing him with the happy smile and dry wit. Can remember helping decorate our church for Christmas and he'd be joking around with all of us.
Will be praying for all of you and God bless

I will always remember Mr. Kovac and that twinkle in his eye as he threatened to call the cops on us*. My condolences to the whole Kovac family. I know you will miss your dad dearly.

*I name no one; you know who you are.

Marilee and Family - My thoughts and prayers are with you. Jerry was a wonderful man and married to one beautiful Lady. God Bless you and your children as you go through this very sad time. But God is there for us and will comfort you and give you strength. God Bless you always, Kathy Hatfield

Dear Marilee-

We were so sorry to hear about Jerry, however, Leo is probably looking forward to joking around with him. Those two had the best time together. I told God in my prayers He was in for some good laughs with Jerry. We all loved him.

Mr. Kovac, you must have eaten some candy! Being a neighbor of Mr. Kovac's for years and having a weakness for the sweets, every time Mr. Kovac would see me with some candy, he would advise me in a kidding manner that it was going to kill me. Years ago when I was smoking, he would tell me the same, but then he wasn't kidding. Thank you Mr. Kovac, but I wish you hadn't eaten that candy as you were a sincere pleasure to run into and chat. My condolences to the entire Kovac family as I know he will be missed.

Jerry, my deepest sympathy to you and your family in the loss of your Father. May you all be blessed with peace and comfort.

Chris and family,
I am so sorry for your loss, my thoughts and prayers go out to you. I understand the difficulty and pain it is.

I don't know Mr. Kovac or any of his family but his obituary is very sweet. His sense of humor has obviously been passed to his family. So sorry for your loss.

Aunt Marilee and Family,
Patty and I want to tell everyone how sorry we were to hear of Uncle Jerry's passing. I called Erin to tell her and we all remembered him for his sly smile, wit, good humor, and love of family. He always had a kind word for everyone. He loved sports especially the Cardinals, and had a fondness for M&Ms. He blessed the lives of all who met him.
Love Bob and Patty

Peggy,
I am sorry for your loss. You and your family have my deepest sympathy during this and remember your father is resting peacefully in heaven!

Peggy:

Please accept my condolences for loss of your father life. May his life continue to grace your family with his sense of humor and his willingness to accept life with zest for love of his family.

Peace be with you and yours

Barb Gregory

Peggy,
I am sorry for your loss. You and your family have my deepest sympathy during this time and just know that your father is resting peacefully in heaven. May God be with you all!

Celebrate his long life and good health and all the great memories.

To all of the Kovacs, my sincere condolences. Uncle Jerry was one of a kind. I missed him and his wonderful smile at fish fry last night. Sharon, kudos on the obit.. I'm so jealous I didn't think of that last year!
