Retired from Rockwell Standard International, Kenton. Ivan enjoyed memberships of many area golf courses and played on the Friday Travel Senior League. He did achieve a hole in one at Lakeland Golf Course.
He restored his childhood Lyman boat resulting in a broken elbow but had many summer weekends of fun on Lake Erie. Ivan was always asking “when is the next game” for his grandchildren’s sporting events. He certainly enjoyed his 30 years of retirement with family.
