M.    Lowell    Eddy

9/17/1941 - 1/15/2013

        Lowell Eddy lost his valiant battle with lung cancer on January 15, 2013

        He was proud to be a 12th generation American and 4th generation Colorado native. He was born in Oak Creek, CO. on September 17, 1941. Lowell graduated from Moorcroft High School in Wyoming in 1959. He went on to serve as a communication specialist with the First Infantry Division in Viet Nam in 1965-1966. Lowell then attended and graduated from Colorado State University in 1970 with a business degree.

        After graduation, Lowell and his family moved to Arvada, CO. where he spent 20 years in the textile business. He started in warehousing, moved to management and then went on to try his hand at sales. He really developed his skills at sales and when he moved on to a position with an under carriage car parts company, his true love for his work became clear. Cars had been Lowell's passion since high school so visiting mechanic shops throughout the Denver area was pure joy for him.

        In 1999 the Eddys moved to La Veta where Lowell took a job with Quest Manufacturing in Walsenburg as the national sales manager. He quickly found that talking about turnout gear for firefighters was as enjoyable as working with mechanics. Lowell developed many wonderful friends, all over the country, through the years he worked for Quest.

        He officially retired in 2009. He was a member of the Board of Directors for the La  Veta Fire Protection District and for the La Veta Cemetery District.

        Lowell leaves behind Sandra, his loving wife of 45 years; sons, Greg (Joan) and Chris (Stephanie); four wonderful grandchildren, Sam, Grace, Jillian and Jordyn. He also leaves behind many loving friends and his yellow lab, Cody.

        In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to the American Cancer Association or the La Veta Fire Protection Service.    

        Graveside services and celebration of Lowell's life will be held at a later date in La Veta.

Hamblin, Peggy Jean Hamblin, nee Powers

Peggy Jean Hamblin, 61, Butler

        BUTLER -- Encouragement is prompted by love and directs others toward God.

        Peggy Hamblin took seriously her duty as a Christ follower to encourage others and build them up. In a world full of discouragers, Peggy supported, cheered and promoted others. It was a part of her personality that so endeared her to co-workers, friends and her church family. Peggy Hamblin was an encourager.

        Peggy Jean Hamblin went to be with the Lord on Saturday evening, May 25, 2013, from the emergency room of MedCentral Hospital following an apparent heart attack. She was 61.

        Born Peggy Jean Powers on Feb. 28, 1952, in Norton, Va., she graduated from Ashland High School. Peggy worked more than 20 years with the Kroger Co., many of those years as cashier and head cashier, and later working in administration in the office at the Lexington Avenue, Fourth Street and Ashland Road stores. It was there at Kroger that she met a young man, Douglas J. Hamblin, who would become her husband on Sept. 6, 1980.

        Peggy worked the past eight years as transportation dispatcher with Richland Newhope. She was a member of Woodville Grace Brethren Church, where she served the congregation as a nursery worker.

        Peggy greeted most everyone with "Gimme a hug." She knew that, in getting a hug, she was also giving one. Described as generous and a little bit goofy, she was an excellent cook; she made the best macaroni and cheese and lasagna, and everyone at church raved about her pasta salad. Peggy enjoyed sewing and scoping out garage sales, and could often be found with a book in her hands -- but only when she could put down the magazine Women's World.

        She is survived by her husband, Doug; their daughters, Penny Brown of Ashland, Pamm McDaniel of Butler, Elizabeth (Josh) Brokaw of Pittsburgh, Pa., and Karla (Greg) Picard of Butler; grandchildren, Amanda Darr, Brittany Swanger, Tyffany Brown, Bryant McDaniel, Michael Konzel Jr., Tristin Hamblin and one on the way, Zander Picard; six great-grandchildren; her mother, Helen (ne Icenhour) Powers of Ashland; a brother, Bill (Debbie) Powers of Ashland; several aunts and uncles and a large extended family.

        She was preceded in death by her father Arnold Powers, and a granddaughter, Jessika Brown.

        The Hamblin family will receive friends 4 to 7 p.m. today, May 28, 2013, at Lexington Avenue Snyder Funeral Home. Pastor Ron Smals will lead her funeral service immediately following the calling hours at 7 p.m. in the funeral home.

        In lieu of flowers, contributions in her memory to Cystic Fibrosis Foundation or Woodville Grace Brethren Church may be made at the funeral home.

Hamilton, Evelyn Yvonne Hamilton nee Brock

          Source: Harper Funeral Home, Beallsville, Ohio October 18, 2013

          Evelyn Yvonne Brock Hamilton was welcomed into Heaven by her beloved husband, John William Hamilton, brother William Ernest Brock, parents Ernest and Mary Thornberry Brock, and grandson, Eric Lee Crooks.

          Evelyn was born on April 9, 1932 in Beallsville, where she lived most of her life. She graduated Beallsville High School in 1951 and married Private First Class John W. Hamilton on September 27, 1952, just days before he shipped out to Korea for two long years. She worked as a clerk in the Stark County Courthouse in Canton, Ohio until John returned stateside. They soon started their family and she devoted herself to being a full-time wife, homemaker, mother, and ruler of the roost. As a young woman, Evelyn had dreamed of going to nursing school, and later in life, had the opportunity to work in health care as a nursing aide at Barnesville Hospital for many years. She loved her job, and made many lifelong friends as a result. She was a member of the First Christian Church, Beallsville, and was active in OES #24. She and John served as Worthy Matron & Patron of the lodge twice, and they participated regularly in Grand Chapter. She was a world-class cook and baker in her day, and her recipes keep her in the heart of many homes each time her best dishes are shared and enjoyed. It must be said that she took home the Blue Ribbon in the Annual Hamilton Family Reunion Pie Bake-Off too many years to count, much to the chagrin of her competition.

          Following John’s death in 2012, Evelyn moved into Emerald Pointe Health & Rehab Center in Barnesville, where she dominated the daily Bingo game, enjoyed outings like viewing the Christmas lights at Oglebay Park, and made many new friends. Even in her last difficult days, Evelyn had a smile for everyone who visited her, and loved having her family, friends, and caretakers around her.

          Left to celebrate her life are five children, Barbara (Walter) Dornon, Cynthia (Roger) Crooks, Rebecca Hamilton, Stephanie (Robert) Morris, Jr., and John (Michelle) Hamilton; a sister, Doris (Fred) Baker; a sister-in-law, Janet Brock; eight grandchildren, Jason (Heather) Dornon & Anthony (Ashley) Dornon, Dawn (J.C.) Mercer & Justin (Natasha) Crooks, Haydn Hamilton, Jack Wells & Samson Wells and Mariah Hamilton; and seven great-grandchildren, Kellen, Kennedy & Kasslyn Dornon, Pacyn & Daylin Mercer, and Emily & Katie Crooks. Evelyn’s family would like to extend special thanks to the nurses, aides, and hospice staff at Emerald Pointe for their loving care in her final days. They find comfort knowing that she passed over peacefully to join John and share their heavenly reward together.

          In her memory, it is asked that you bake something delicious and share it – and a smile – with your family.

          Friends and family will be received Saturday from 5 PM to 8 PM at the Harper Funeral Home, Beallsville where funeral services will be held Sunday at 1 PM with Ed Fellabaum officiating. Interment will follow in Beallsville Cemetery. Eastern Star services will be conducted at the funeral home, Saturday at 8 PM.

        Jerome -- Ronald William Kehoe, Sr., 64, of Jerome, passed away unexpectedly on Jan. 31, 2013, in Salina, Kan. Ronnie was born June 15, 1948, in Indianapolis, the son of Barbara and Bill Kehoe. Ronnie was drafted into the U.S. Army in 1967 where he finished his high school education. He deployed to Vietnam and served his country proudly. He earned a Purple Heart and several accommodations during his service and he was honorably discharged in 1971. He married his high school sweetheart, Cindy Rains, in 1967. From that marriage, four children were born: Barbara (Bobbi) Cooper, James Steven Kehoe, Melissa and Ronald William Kehoe Jr. Though that marriage ended in 1975, Ronnie and Cindy remained friends until the very end. Ronnie married Rita Moore in 1981. From that marriage was born James Moore, Melisa Moore and Mark Alan Kehoe. Though that union also ended, Rita and Ronnie remained close friends and still spent time together. Ronnie lived the first half of his life in Indiana. He moved to Idaho in the early 1980s where he started working as a long-haul truck driver for Giltner Milk. Although the work was strenuous, there was nothing else he would rather be doing. Although he often spoke of retiring back to Indiana, his children knew deep in their hearts that retiring would probably never happen because he truly loved his job very much.

        Ronnie is survived by his children; Bobbi (Gary) Cooper, Melissa (Jeff) Rowe, Melisa (Armando) Tinajero, Ronald W. Kehoe, Jr. (Aimie), James Moore and Mark Kehoe (Tonya); 18 grandchildren, two great-grandchildren; two sisters; two brothers; and many extended family members and friends.

Marietta High graduate dies at home Thursday

By EVAN BEVINS , Marietta Times

        MARIETTA - Being sad over the death of a classmate is natural, but sadness is definitely not the emotion Marietta High School students associated with Travis Kuhn.

        "He was, like, the happiest kid ever," sophomore Kienze Clark said of Kuhn, who died Thursday at his home at the age of 19.

        "He was always smiling," added sophomore Ali Wells. 

        Sherry McCabe, an intervention specialist who had Kuhn in class the last four years, said she wouldn't have blamed the young man, who used a wheelchair because of his cerebral palsy, for complaining once in a while, but she never heard him do it.

        "He loved to be at school. He loved being around his peers, around the adults," she said.

        Principal Bill Lee loved having him around.

        "Travis always had a sunny disposition," Lee said. "If you saw him once or if you saw him 15 times, every time - 'Travis, how you doing?' 'Good, you?'"

        That attitude touched everyone Kuhn encountered, the principal said.

        "Travis Kuhn was living proof that angels walk among us," Lee said. "Such a good boy."

        Kuhn graduated last year, but was still attending Marietta High School as he transitioned to the WASCO program, Lee said. His death, for which a cause had not been determined Friday, spurred students and faculty alike to action.

        "I had numerous students shedding tears in my office (Thursday), wanting to know what they could do," Lee said. "It's been an outpouring across the entire student body, an outpouring of love."

        Art teacher Heath Rader drew a portrait of Kuhn that staff members had framed to present to his mother. McCabe said students in her special education class were making posters and sharing memories of their friend.

        A banner reading "Heaven has a new angel, We love and miss you Travis!" was spread out in the library, and students came in to sign their names and leave messages, including one that read "We'll miss you and your attitude."

        "At first you didn't want to believe it," sophomore Aaron Kennon said of learning about Kuhn's death. "It's really great for the whole school to get together at this time."

        The banner was displayed at Friday's football game against Williamstown. Prior to the start, a moment of silence was held and Kuhn's picture was shown on the scoreboard. During the game, students were to circulate to collect donations to help Kuhn's family with funeral expenses.

       Kuhn's stepfather, Wesley Blair, said the family appreciated the show of support.

        Lee said people who want to contribute can do so at the high school office. Checks should be made out to Marietta City Schools and can be mailed to the school, care of Lee, at 208 Davis Ave., Marietta 45750.

        Kuhn's funeral is scheduled for 1 p.m. Monday at McClure-Schafer-Lankford Funeral Home, with visitation from 2 to 4 and 6 to 8 p.m. Sunday.

        He is survived by his mother, Devon Blair, and father, Roger Kuhn and his wife Jenny, as well as five sisters, a brother, grandparents and several aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews.
