Ivan Stankowicz

Ivan was a friend to me. And many! He had that capacity. We talked a lot; his generosity and empathy for others was huge.
He also loved a good barbecue. And knew how to put the work in FOR. Whatever necessary. To make whatever needed to be better, better. Plus he was light hearted in a way and calm and fun to be around. I, and the whole world will miss you Ivan. God´s speed. We miss youAMM

Ivan rest in Peace and our Deepest Sympathy to your
entire family.

Ivan said "Thank you" when I told him he was a good father. It after the first couple of trips taking the kids camping with the new camper. Some memories include fireworks in the alley for the 4th of July with the kids, fires in the backyard, barbecuing, sausage-making, being in the studio with the band, his curio-cabinet, geods, fossils, chemistry experiments with Luke in the backyard, little paratroopers jumping out the 2nd floor window, the front garden, the kids digging holes in the front yard, Gumbo the cat, the kid's bunkbeds, Ivy's wildflower garden. It wasn't "things", it was all about the expieriences for Ivan. You are missed. Your kids are loved and you will always shine on through their presences and full lives to come.

Pokey and family,
We are soo sorry we can not be with you today . Our sincere condolences and prayers are with you all. RIP your dear Ivan .

Ivan,

Any time your name came up in conversation with my family and friends, it was always followed by "and so handsome." But that was just what you were on the outside. More important was what you were on the inside. A beyond amazing father, friend, and absolutely the apple of your moms eye. Loved by so many and gone far too soon. Rest in paradise.

dear ivan, uncle mike loves you, i will miss you dearly. i treasure all the wonderful memories we shared. ivan you made the world a better place. ivan, i will hold you forever in my heart.

Fond childhood memories of hanging out at Wilson park with all our friends, walking the neighborhood and stopping by his grams hotdog stand. He was a good guy and impacted every life he touched.
Rest well my friend.

Worked with Ivan a few times.Good hearted.
Condolences to his family .

I am so sorry for your loss. Ivan encouraged my son to get into the auto industry and gave him some great advice the past couple months. He was a great teacher in the car classes and just all around nice guy.

This is a very huge grievous and unexpected loss.
Ivan was a good worker, a pleasure to talk with, and a all around great person. He talk about his family with so much love and adoration all the time, especially his Mom and Kids. He will be greatly missed. My prayers and condolences for his family.

I worked with Ivan years ago.He always made eveybody laugh. My condolences
