Mrs Stranahan and family - my deepest sympathy and condolences in the loss of your husband. I sort of met your husband as a baby/toddler (born in 1955) when he joined the Ohio National Guard in Toledo and was friends with my Father - Philemon Redman and my Mother - Barbara Sharp Redman. I remember being told that my Father talked Mr Stranahan into joining the Natioanl Guard. My parents told me that Mr Stranahan did some flying for the National Guard unit. My parents moved away from Toledo...

Ann- We are very sorry for your loss. I have heard that he was an amazing person and appreciate the things he did for the city of Toledo. Although I never met him, I feel I have when I am working in the Stonecroft greenhouse and also when walking through the path to the Foundation for early morning walks. Take Care, Lisa and Gary Smith
