Alexander Kozub's Obituary

From jtgen's notes, I came across another clue!

This is Alexander Kozub's Obituary. In it, I learn that besides a brother, Peter, living in Perth Amboy, Alexander had two sisters in America! From baptismal records, I know his sisters names: Catharina, Johanna and Maria. So which is married to a Risko of Manville, NY and which is married to a Repatsky of Youngwood?

Here it is:

Alexander Kozub Obituary. Perth Amboy [NJ, USA] Evening News. Thursday, May 23, 1935. "Alexander Kozub 77, died last night at his home, 173 Broad Street. He is survived by a widow, Irene, one daughter, Mrs. J. W.

Repatsky of Youngwood and eight grand children. Funeral services will be held Saturday morning at 9 o'clock from the home and 10 o'clock from St. John's church where a requiem high mass will be celebrated by Rev. Michael Iskats?.
