Dear Novack Family,

We were deeply saddened to hear of Dr. Novack's passing. As both a colleague and a friend, we had the privilege of working alongside him in healthcare and sharing our experiences judging science fair projects across the county. His passion for medicine and commitment to our community were truly inspiring.

Dr. Novack's presence will be greatly missed, and he leaves a significant void in the medical community in Galion. Please know that our thoughts are with you during this difficult time.

With heartfelt sympathy,

Helen and Bob Guinther

I had the privilege to be both a patient of and the dentist to Dr. Novack. There were always more deep conversations than actual treatment, much to the dismay of our staff members, who begged us to stay on time with the schedule. His best line was, "We are not God, but we can be the answer to a prayer." Love you, brother.

To the doctor's family, loved ones, and friends:

You have my deepest condolences and sympathies on the loss of such a tremendous man. Although I'm certain his kindness and love continues through you, his passion bettered the lives of hundreds of people, hundreds of families across our region.

In the ashes of a wasted pasts he helped plant the seeds of hope, change, and growth. One addict saved helps dozens of people around them. In that context it can be said that Doctor Novack helped *thousands* of people around our area.

Thank you for sharing him with us. May the Lord wrap you in His arms and ease your pain. Know that so many of us, the recipients of the hope he planted, grieve with you.

God bless you and keep you.
