Ken and Joan met, fell in love in Cleveland, oh..Ken served in the Army and when returning married joan and they welcomed 3 children-Ken, Pam and Nancy. Active in their community-Joan painted the school, Ken umpired the baseball games...Adding to their Joy were grandchildren,Tara, Derek, Lindsay and Reagan... Many summers and vacations were spent visiting "cuz"-Jack-and his family in Mansfield--where they each enjoyed the others company and the kids kept them hopping. Pleasant Hill Lake in the summers, trips to Atlantic City, Washington DC, Gettysburg and the long trip West to Las Vegas-then on thru Southern California and back to Las Vegas//Niagar Falls was a favorite destination--rfepeated many times and loved each and every time. Slowing down was only natural -- but still loved the trips to Mansfield to be with his best bud and cousin-jack.and-- we made sure that we were able to go up to his home for one last visit the day before Thanksgiving.
