ז״ל — Zichrono Livracha
August 10th, 2025: It is with deep sadness that we share the passing of our beloved husband, father, grandfather, uncle, mentor and friend, Cantor, Justice Paul Kowarsky.
He is survived by his devoted, caring wife Barbara, his children and grandchildren; Kim and Jason, Glen, Lara and Dave, Daniel and Teresa, Ryan and Aislyn, and their families. And Barbara’s children, Melissa and Mark, Amanda and Simon, and their families.
His accomplishments need not be lauded. Each person who knew him should take solace in the memories of their shared friendships.
