Carolyn Pope Kovatch & John Kovatch

28 years for John & Carolyn Pope



John Kovatch, once BJ vice president/finance and administration, and wife Carolyn Pope Kovatch are celebrating their 28^th wedding anniversary.

They own homes in The Villages, Florida and in Green. Paula and I spend the winters in her Villages home when we’re not in our Tallmadge residence.

The lovebirds wrote:

“Happy Anniversary to my wonderful wife Carolyn. It's been a great 28 years together and I look forward to many more. Love you with all my heart!”

She responded:

“You're the sweetest and the absolute best! Love you, too!!!”

Last winter we caught them dancing the night away in The Villages’ Spanish Springs, one of three squares in The Villages which have live music and dancing every night of the year.

John and Carolyn bought a home in The Village of Charlotte. Paula's house is in The Village of Silver Lake.

Spanish Springs is my favorite of the three Villages squares. It feels more like down-home West Virginia.

John’s career included University of Akron associated vice president/controller, Knight-Ridder vice president finance and administration, Ernest & Young CPA, and currently JEK Accounting Service before his Kent State and Euclid High days.

He’s from Massillon, Ohio, where Paul Brown began his fabulous coaching career.
