Koz, It was great having you as a customer but most of all as a friend. You have a great family and they are doing great. Prayers are with you and your family.

I think of you each and every day and
its been so hard not having you here with us.
My heart aches and I miss you so
very much.
All of us talk about the Cardinals winning the Series and now the Bears
going to the SuperBowl- We wish you
could be here with us to cheer them on,but we somehow all feel that you have something to do with this magical season.
Our family tries to remain strong without you and we each are there for each other with the love and support we need to go on.
We love you and miss you!

WHEN THROUGH ONE MAN A LITTLE MORE LOVE AND GOODNESS, A LITTLE MORE LIGHT AND TRUTH COME INTO THE WORLD-THEN THAT MAN'S LIFE HAS HAD MEANING.

Mickey, Corie & Mike.



Koz was one of a kind, a man that always put his family first. I always enjoyed working for him & Mick...they would always order stuffed pizza from Dino's and made me feel more like family then just a friend. Words cannot express the sympathy I'm feeling for the entire Kosovich family today.

Our condolences to the family of Jerry.



I had the pleasure of playing with Jerry on the 'lights' at DePaul Academy. Even though I lost contact with him shortly after graduation, I've thought of him and our team over the years.



God rest his soul and give you the grace and strength to carry on with his legacy. He was a good man.

God gave you a good man to love and share your life with and gave you two wonderful children.

May God bless you and all of your family and give you the strenghth

you need to carry on. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you.

To the Kosovich family our condolences on the loss of Jerry.



Jerry was a classmate of mine at DePaul Academy, and we played Basketball together all four years at DePaul. He was on the "Lights" and on the "Heavies" We practiced together every day for four years. Kos also played 16" softball with us on a Sunday CYO League some years ago at Portage Park. What a Great player he was in both sports.

God Rest his soul.



He will trully be missed. May the Good Lord always hold him in the Palm of His hands.



He will now be with his brother Jim who passed on way to early in life also.

DEAR MICKEY, MICHAEL, & CORIE
There are no words that can express the profound sadness and pain of loosing your spouse, father and friend. but there are words to express the wonderfull life you shared together. the joy you shared as wife, son, daughter, and friends will be a treusure of your hearts forever.

One day " I heard it said", that you will cry less and laugh more. Remember I will always be there for you to cry and sertinley to laugh with.
