RAWSON -- Kenneth A. Warren, 81, of Rawson, passed away Tuesday morning, May 18, 2010, at 11:32 a.m. following a lengthy illness. He died peacefully at home surrounded by his family.
He was born in Putnam County on August 4, 1928 to the late Alfred S. and Ina E. (Bishop) Warren. He married Peggy J. Barkimer on October 17, 1948, and she survives him. They celebrated 61 years of marriage last October.
He is survived by his children: Cheryl A. (Robert) Conkle, McComb; James A. (Debra Kotterman) Warren, Alpharetta, GA; Cathy J. (Dave) Kendrick, Nashville, OH; and Carolyn J. (David) Ferris, Rawson; five grandchildren: Matthew Detamore, Andrea and Ashley Warren, Brian Ferris, and Kelsea (Ryan) Wenger; and one great-grandchild, Mathys Wenger; a sister, Evelyn Smith, Lima and sister-in-law, Margaret Warren of Massillon, OH, along with many nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by brothers: Serge J. and Doyle V. (infant) Warren; brother-in-law, Roger Smith and an infant daughter, Sandra.
Kenny was a 1946 graduate of Arlington High School and was engaged in farming for many years.
Over the years, Kenny worked at B.F. Goodrich and United Trucking; more recently, he worked as a salesman for Findlay International and Peterbilt of Northwest Ohio. He also served on the Hancock County School Board for 16 years.
Upon retirement in 1993, he and his wife spent their years breeding, training, and raising Standardbred race horses. It started as a hobby, but as time went on, it became a passion and they were fortunate to have many successful and enjoyable years in the horse racing business, having over 100 wins in his racing career. Kenny was a member of the U.S. Trotting Association and the Ohio Harness Horseman's Assn. He also served on the speed committee for the Hancock County Fair.
Most days, Kenny, along with his dog, Abbie, could be found at the Cory-Rawson Café drinking coffee and catching up on the latest news.
Visitation will be held at CRATES FUNERAL HOME in Arlington from 2-8 p.m. Thursday, May 20, 2010, and one hour prior to the funeral service at the church.
