Ivo Heller

10.21.1952 - 2.15.2023

Ivo Heller was born in Cesky Brod, Czech Republic, on October 21,1952 to Kvetoslava Hellerova (née Aldorfova) and Dr Jaroslav Heller. Ivo graduated from the Prague University of Economics and Business in 1976.

In 1986, he emigrated to Fort Lee, New Jersey, where he remained a lifelong resident. Ivo’s adventurous spirit and passion for life, music, sports, and travel led him through many parts of the world. Ivo started his own printing press company, United Graphic Systems, based in Englewood, NJ.

A man with a huge heart, Ivo made friends wherever he went and always supported his friends and family. He succumbed to complications from Parkinson’s disease on February 15, 2023. His loss created an irreparable chasm in those he left behind.“There is a crack in everything; that’s how the light gets in.”

Ivo is survived by his wife, Magda Heller and daughter, Lenka Hellerova. Private cremation was held and the burial of his remains will take place in the Czech Republic.
