Kenneth CRUM Obituary

CRUM, Kenneth S. Age 53 of Bellbrook, passed away unexpectedly on June 10, 2019. He is survived by his wife of 10 years Christine Crum, children Connor (and his mother Tammy), Charlie and Annie, parents Larry (Connie) Crum, Mary Crum, grandmother Phyllis Rehorst (Double G), sisters Lisa Crum and Jennifer (Jon) Katheiser, nephews Jonathan Patton and Ian Murphy and niece Adrienne Murphy, father and mother-in-law Ken and Martha Murphy, brother-in-law Brian Murphy and numerous other relatives and friends. Kenny was many things to many people. He was a dedicated and loving husband, father, son, brother and friend. His friends and family will remember his hopeless love of the Cleveland Browns, his ability to overcomplicate dinner preparation and his fondness for KFC. Ken was known for being a wonderful storyteller and for his ability to debate any subject at any time with anyone. He spent countless hours on his mild obsession with fantasy baseball and football, a "hobby" that he shared with many of his closest friends. He loved bourbon, Alton Brown and Game of Thrones. Ken was a software engineer at Everteam Corporation. Prior to that he worked in the software industry at IBM and Fifth Third Bank. He was considered a committed teammate by everyone with whom he worked. Most of all, Ken will be remembered for his willingness to do anything for the people he loved, which he did until his last moments. He was a hero. He will be greatly missed. The family will receive friends on Monday, June 17, 2019 at the Tobias Funeral Home Beavercreek Chapel, 3970 Dayton-Xenia Rd. at Grange Hall Rd. from 11 am until the time of services at 1 pm. www.tobiasfuneralhome.com.

I am so sorry. My heart breaks for the family. I went to school with Ken starting in grade school through high school. His smile was contagious and was always fun to be around even as a young kid. I ran into him many years ago in a Beavercreek Speedway. We both did a double take and when we recognized each other, he gave me that great smile and a big hug. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Our deepest sympathies to Larry & Connie and the rest of the family.

I would like to offer my sincere condolences to Ken's family, sorry for your loss. Jeremiah 29:11, 12 assures us that God is thinking thoughts of peace towards us, to give us a future and a hope, and that if we come and pray to Him, He will listen to us. May that bring you comfort in this time of sorrow.
