He was an active citizen of his adopted home town of Orleans on Cape Cod, serving on the School Committee, being active in rebuilding the town's library after a devastating fire, and founding The Orleans Conservation Trust.[1][2] Tovrov has two children; the late John Tovrov (May 20, 1948 - March 3, 2022) and Jessica Tovrov.
