Kenneth Vinocur

Ken leaves behind his loving wife of more than 52 years, Natalie, and his devoted daughters, Erin (Andrew) White and Randi (Eric) Wallin. He was the proud and adoring Zayde of Josie and Mack White, and Ayden Wallin.

Ken was the loving son of the late Harry and Goldie Vinocur, and the devoted brother of the late Edward (Debbie) Vinocur, uncle to Jonathan (Andrea)Vinocur, Alicia (Ben) Fooden & Joel (Lauren)Vinocur. Ken’s sharp memory made him the historical patriarch to many of his cousins.

A lifelong Clevelander and devoted sports enthusiast, Ken was a proud and loyal fan of the Cleveland Guardians, Browns, Cavaliers, and The Ohio State Buckeyes.

He graduated from Cleveland Heights High School, Class of 1966, and attended both The Ohio State University and The University of Toledo. Ken enjoyed a successful career as an accountant for more than 50 years and was a Past Master of University Heights Masonic Lodge 738. He was also a third-generation member of Park Synagogue, where his dedication and involvement left a lasting impact.

Park Synagogue was truly the center of Ken’s life outside of his family. He was a regular minyan attendee, a beloved former USY advisor, a Shofar blower during the High Holidays, a past officer of the Men’s Club, and was honored as Centerite of the Year for his outstanding service and commitment.

The greatest joy in Ken’s life was being Zayde to Josie, Mack, and Ayden. His love for his family was unwavering, and he cherished every moment spent with them.

Ken will be remembered for his devotion to family, his Jewish faith & community around him. His presence brought light to every room he entered, and his legacy will continue to shine brightly in the lives of all who knew and loved him.
