Patrick and Mary Novack actively served the community of
Coon Rapids for more than thirty years.
In May of 2004 they were killed in an auto accident while
returning from Washington D.C. Congressman Jim Ramstad
stated in a letter after their death that Pat and Mary were “true
pillars of the community, as well as great American Patriots”, and
“their many civic contributions…will be sorely missed”. On May
25th, two days after their death, the Congressman requested that
the flag flying over the Capital in Washington D.C fly in their
honor on their 34th Wedding Anniversary, and presented this flag
to the family at the funeral.
The Novack Scholarship Foundation awards a $1000.00
scholarship each year to a Coon Rapids High School Senior
based on demonstrable excellence in community service. The
first award was given to CRSH graduate Megan Janni in June of
2006, and was funded entirely by the Novack family. All
applicants are asked to complete an essay of no more than 1000
words and submit this to Mrs. Adams in the Guidance Office at
Coon Rapids Senior High School.
In August of 2006 the Patrick and Mary Novack Community
Service Scholarship Foundation was granted 501(c)3 charitable
status, and any donation made to the Foundation is now tax-
deductible.
