The family would like to thank Leisha Burrows, Debbie Campbell, Michael A.

Kitson, Dr. Anthony Muni, Dr. Gary B. Williams, Dr. Joseph Zarconi, and the many other doctors and nursing staff of ICU, 5W, and 6W at Summa Health System for their excellent care.

At the request of our mother, there will be no calling hours. Private interment at West Richfield Cemetery with Reverend Robert A. Denton officiating. Should friends desire, memorials may be made to the Ted R. Munsey Memorial Scholarship Fund, PO Box 121, Bath, Ohio 44210. This scholarship was set up by Wilma and her son, Richard to honor Mr. Munsey's twenty-five years of volunteer service with the Revere High School athletic programs. Since its inception in 1997, this scholarship has benefited one student athlete each year. (Billow FAIRLAWN Chapel)
