RIP JOHN L POPRAC (June 7, 1956 – February 22, 2026)

Formal pronouncement of death was made on Sunday.

The decedent’s surname appears to be Slovakian.

Isaac Ferdinand Sarosi was the first-known immigrant from what is now Slovakia. He arrived in the Pennsylvania religious colony of Germantown to serve as a teacher and preacher in 1695.

The large-scale, mass migration of Slovaks to the United States is generally dated to 1873, when a cholera epidemic and widespread crop failures in eastern Slovakia set off a major wave of emigration.
