I can still hear Grandpa Zeke's voice as if he was here next to me right now.He would say (Quit your balling or I'll give you something to ball about! Don't be such a baby!) Then he would go and fix me the biggest plate size heart warming pancake ever made. I love you Grandpa Zeke! I know your up there mowing the straightest lines on the greenest grass in heaven.

May God be with Grandpa Zeke, comfort him, heal him, and love him.
Grandpa served our country with great pride. I'm certain he experienced things we would consider unimaginable while he was serving our country. His Military awards are well deserved and greatly appreciated by all.
I will always carry the memories of going to Grandpa Zekes house, the senior pictures of My dad Doug, Aunt Linda, Aunt Lori, Uncle Danny, and Aunt Tina on the wall. Sunday dinner after church,...

Hello family, he has now joined his brothers that have went before him.
They are probably playing polka music and dancing the night away. Also speaking a language I never understood. Paulanka a Hungarian word means whiskey I understood this from my father Joseph who loved his drinks. I wish I could attend the celebration memorial it would be nice to see family that I haven't seen in years. My memories of your father well I was always scared of his bark. Jackie Vedrode

My favorite memories of Uncle Zeke are him & his sister (my Mom Rose Frollo) sitting behind the plate at the Richland Township Park watching his grandson & my son Tom playing baseball. Uncle Zeke sure knew how to keep the umps on their toes!! May your memories comfort you and bring you peace thru the days ahead.

My Dad was an amazing man. I miss the sound of his voice and his laugh and his amazing cooking and holding his hand. I am so thankful he is no longer suffering. No matter what he always had a positive, can-do spirit though and fought the very best fight he could until the very end. Thank you all so much for your kind words. I know my Dad never met a stranger and would thank you himself if he could. Love you forever and a day, Dad Your baby girl, Tina
