Alumni Spotlight

Steven Komives '65

Celebrating the achievements and contributions of its alumni is a tradition that Elyria Catholic High School holds dear. Among its accomplished graduates, Steven Komives from the Class of 1965 stands out as a remarkable individual who has led a life filled with spiritual exploration, dedicated service to his country, and a fulfilling career in technology. Moreover, Steven continues to impact his alma mater through his generosity, utilizing his Individual Retirement Account (IRA) to make Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) that benefit the school while minimizing his tax burden and maximizing the potential of his charitable impact.
