John Novakoski’s children’s fund

Today, the world we live in became a little less funny, and a little less kind with the tragic and sudden loss of John  Novakoski. John was known by many different names to his loved ones; Johnners, Uncle Buddy, Son, and most importantly, Dad were the names to which he would most often respond. John was a connoisseur of life, and enjoyed traveling and camping with his family more than anything in the world. He was eager, and proud  to be able to provide his children with new experiences that they would always remember. Most recently he was looking forward to planning a trip to Disneyworld in the spring. 
John always worked so hard to provide for his young family. A full time electrician, John and his long time partner, Madeline Karoly, bought their first home in the suburbs of Pennsylvania not long ago.
As they were working to build a home, they were also working on building and raising their family.  John is survived by his 4 children of whom he was their hero. Their names are LJ (9), Joey (7), Madeline (5), and Jacob (11 mos). As the primary provider for the household, losing John leaves his young family in a perilous predicament. We are humbly asking for help in supporting these children and Madeline as they move forward without John.  
John was never afraid to dive into to new situations. He took to fatherhood as easily as he took to learning new skills and exploring new territories. Please help John’s family move into the future feeling a little more secure, and surrounded by love as they are guided through this time of incomprehensible loss.
