Peter Kovac Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Philbin-Comeau Funeral Home on Apr. 5, 2025.
LANCASTER- Peter J. Kovac, 62, passed peacefully on Wednesday, April 2, 2025 after a courageous battle with cancer. He is survived by his loving wife of 33 years, Kim (Maitland) Kovac, his daughter Kimberly Kovac, his brother James Kovac and wife Jennifer of Clinton, his sister Joyce Lang of Berlin, NH, and many nieces and nephews. He is predeceased by his brother Joseph V. Kovac in 2012.
Born in Clinton to the late Joseph J. and Virginia (Bedard) Kovac, Peter attended local schools and graduated from Clinton High School, Class of 1980. Peter enjoyed bowling and was on a bowling league with his daughter Kimberly when she was a young girl. Peter loved his sports; not just one sport, but he enjoyed watching a plethora of different sports, college and professional. Peter relished spending alone time in his "man-cave" listening to music, specifically 70's rock. Journey and The Eagles were among his favorite bands to relax to; music made him the happiest. If you knew Peter, you would know his adoration for scratch tickets; he could be found at the Next Door Market picking up some "scratchies", looking for that next big win. Peter was a fantastic fisherman, and among other things, he was an avid Three Stooges fan. Above all, Peter was a loving husband, father, brother and uncle, and he will be missed beyond measure.
A calling hour will be held on Wednesday, April 9, 2025 from 9 until 10AM in the Philbin-Comeau Funeral Home, 176 Water St., Clinton, with a funeral service immediately following at 10AM. Online condolences may be placed at www.philbincomeaufh.com.
