“Kenneth’s final cruise-in…”

Kenneth “Ken” A. Erwin, age 80, of Ansonia, Ohio, passed away on Saturday, August 24, 2024, at his home with his family by his side.

He was born on March 26, 1944, in Union City, Indiana, to the late Marvin and Edna (Poling) Erwin.

In addition to his parents, Ken was preceded in death by his siblings, Richard “Buddy” Erwin, James Erwin, Janet Hall, and Sharon Mayo and her husband, Dick.

Ken is survived by his loving wife of 60 years, Marilyn (Lyons) Erwin, whom he married on March 12, 1964; his sons, Mike Erwin and his wife, Laurie, of Ansonia, and Marc Erwin of Ansonia; his grandchildren, Jacob Erwin of Fairborn and Emma and Ava Erwin of Ansonia; his sister-in-law, Norma Erwin of Ansonia; his brother-in-law, Jerry Hall of Georgia; and numerous nieces, nephews, and dear friends.

Ken was a 1962 graduate of Ansonia High School. As a skilled automotive mechanic, Ken, with his wife at his side, owned several businesses in Ansonia. They operated K&M Service, where he provided automotive and wrecker services for over 45 years, M’nM Petro and Pantry, and Erwins BP. If something needed to be done in Ansonia, Ken was there. He volunteered countless hours, provided skilled knowledge, and loaned out many tools throughout the years to those in need. When his sons were in Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts, Ken stepped up to be the treasurer, which continued for over 50 years.

If you knew Ken, you knew his love of classic cars; he loved everything about them. Ken owned and restored many classic cars over the years. He was a devoted member of the Rolling 50s Car Club and served as their treasurer for 40 years. Although he had many passions, Ken was most passionate about his family, especially his grandchildren. He attended and supported them in all their activities and rarely missed an event.

Join Ken for his final cruise-in, as we celebrate his life, on Friday, August 30, 2024, at 11:00 AM at Tribute Funeral Homes, Greenville Campus. Burial will follow in Ansonia Cemetery.
