Kenneth Nowoc

His professional journey began as a tool and die maker where he developed skills that would serve him throughout his career. He went on to become a machine builder and eventually moved into management with manufacturing companies. He had a gift for understanding how things worked, for solving problems and bringing ideas to life.

His talents didn't end when he left work. Whether working on his beloved sports cars or tackling home improvement projects, he was happiest when he had a project in front of him.

Above all, he was a devoted husband, dad and grandfather. He shared 49 wonderful years of marriage with his wife Nancy, who was also his best friend and road trip partner. His favorite trips were spent behind the wheel of his 26 year old S2000.

He was a loving dad to Kerry(Steven) Kasper and Kevin(Kaella) Nowoc and a special Puddah to Kayleigh and Kori Kasper, who brought him a special kind of joy.

He will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all who knew him.
