Remembering...

I would like to take a moment to remember my dear friend and father-in-law, Ken Rothaermel, who passed away four years ago on this date.

Ken used his life to help and save others. He was a firefighter in East Cleveland for over thirty years. He saw life optimistically and opportunistically, even after emphysema greatly restricted his mobility. I learned from his courage and love, as did everyone who truly knew Ken.

Ken was the kind of man who knew how to move mountains through small things in life. That is one of the amazing lessons he was able to teach me in the time I knew him. I give thanks for Ken Rothaermel and what he gave to all of us.
