Very sad to hear of Kosta's departure.. He was a good man.. He inspired me as a young hire at Ford and as years went by I remembered him even after I changed my career and left Canada.. he was on my thoughts this afternoon and was shocked to know that he left our world.. Rest in peace Kosta.. I will always remember your humor, courage and radiant encouragement to others..

I worked with Kosta in Oakville. He always had a kind word to say and took the time to stop and chat or share a laugh even when the pressure was on. I was so sorry to hear of his passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I am so sorry to hear about Kosta passing. I worked for him here in Kentucky at Webasto. He was most defently one of a kind. He was a person who would go to the ends of the earth to help a friend. As "gruff" as he tried to be he was one big soft hearted man. I know that God will have a ball and never stop laughing at Kosta's stories. God has gained a great angel.

Thanks for everything, Kosta.
With Love and Loss

To Alexander and family:

If the water gets rough,
the wind gets tough,
and everything looks gray...
Know that through Prayer
and the Love and Support of Others,
There Will Be a Brighter Day.

My condolences to the family on the loss of your brother, father and grandfather. Kosta was a former co-worker and we shared many moments together, especially at the Windsor Engine and Casting Plants. He was a great guy to work with.

Kosta was my Launch leader at Ford; always dynamic and 10 steps ahead of everyone else. He could be counted on to support and help his team succeed and we were all witness to that success. A great leader and person who will be sadly missed. Great run Kosta.
