Dad earned his doctorate from The Ohio State University and was a faculty member at Kent State University until retirement. He was a scholar and beloved teacher, earning the title of Emeritus Professor and the University’s Distinguished Teaching Award.


He is survived by his wife Karen; two daughters, Attorney Joanna Malmisur of Canfield, Ohio, and Kristin (Dr. Charles) Jacobs of De Pere, Wisconsin; two grandsons, Ian and William Jacobs; brother-in-law Arthur (Sue) Hult; sister-in-law Olga Malmisur (the late Joseph Malmisur) and many nieces and nephews.
