To the Spevak Family: I just drove past your daycare and saw your sign with Mr. Spevak's name on it. My deepest and most sincere sympathies go out to your family. I really enjoyed seeing Mr. Spevak at Holy Cross and Love 'n Learn. He had a smile for me every time and I will always remember him. My son, Tony, was blessed to know him, as were all the children. I feel for your loss and will keep you all in my prayers.

Mrs. Spevak,
Your husband, Mr. Spevak was well-loved. My kids Brian, John, and Beth Bazzoli all speak of the love and fine times they had while attending Holy Cross Day Care. Now my granddaughter, Annie Bazzoli, is following the tradition and attending your daughter's day care. Patience and guidance is what I remember most, not just from Mr. Spevak, but you too!
My thoughts and prayers are with you during the loss of your husband.

Spevak Family,
Our thoughts and prayers go out to your family in this time of sadness. Mr. will be greatly missed by all who new him. He was such a positive influence to all. Kylie took to him greatly when she first attended day care. She (along with all) will remember him always.

Please know that we send our thoughts and love at this difficult time. I sent my daughter Alex Teague to Holy Cross, which because of Mr. and Mrs. Spevak and Connie, was a place of love, safety, and security. God's love was always there, and gave my daughter such a wonderful foundation on which to base her education, her morals, and her outlook on the world. We thank you and may you take comfort in knowing that Mr. Spevak contributed so directly and so much to so many children.

Dear Spevak family,
I was very sorry to hear of your loss. I remember Mr. Spevak and your whole family so fondly from helping to raise me when I was a child to letting me work with you through college during the summers. That experience and watching how you impacted so many children's lives has truly influenced the teacher that I am today. You are all in my thoughts and prayers,

To the Spevak Family,
I atteneded Holy Cross for a few years of Day Care and Kindergarden. Mr. Spevak was a wonderful man and my childhood wouldn't have been the same if it wasn't for him and his wife. Some of my best memories have come from Holy Cross and Mr. and Mrs. Spevak. It's been probably 15 years since I've been there, but I remember him vividly and I appreciate all that he's done for me and the children of the area.

Mr. and Mrs. Spevak were such a wonderful part of my life for so many years and "Mr." will certainly never be forgotten. I remember when he used to write our names in cursive and help us draw loops around them with different colored crayons. And I'll never forget him waiting for us at Whittier School everyday after school. He will be missed..God Bless.

Mr. Spevak was a true Blessing from God! What a wonderful and kind person. He didn't just touch the hearts of the children but also the adults. It was always fun to go back and visit and see the proud smile on his face. Mr. Spevak touched our lives some 18 years ago and continues to do so by the stories we share.
God Bless You!
