Kenneth E. Lauck, a beloved husband, father, and friend, passed away peacefully on September 29, 2025, at the age of 92 at Mercy Hospital in Canton, Ohio. Born on April 18, 1933, in Akron, Ohio, Ken was a proud graduate of St. Vincent-St. Mary High School, where he laid the foundation for a life filled with dedication and service. A devoted husband, Ken married the love of his life, Margaret "Maggie" Lauck, on July 17, 1954. Together they built a wonderful life, full of love, laughter, and cherished memories.

Ken's career as a Safety Director in the automotive industry was marked by his commitment to his work at General Motors, where he ensured the safety of countless employees. His meticulous nature and passion for his job made him a respected figure in his field. Ken also served in the U.S. Army from November 16, 1954, to September 21, 1956, achieving the rank of Corporal.

In life, Ken was known for his warm smile and his love for golf, often found on the fairway with friends, relishing each round and telling stories that spanned decades. He was an active member of St. Paul's Catholic Church in North Canton, where he embraced his faith and community with open arms.

Kenneth was preceded in death by his parents Earl and Beatrice Lauck, sister Shirley Kisner, grandson Alex Morland, and son-in-law Bruce Morland. He is survived by his wife Maggie (Kurtz) Lauck, children Michael Lauck, Kelly Morland, and Amy Cornette, grandchildren Becky Brown (Casey), Matthew Morland (Abbey), Logan Cornette, and Reilly Cornette, great-grandchildren Ava Morland, Cayden Brown, and Baby Boy Morland, and sisters Jackie Jones (Robert), and Linda Fulk (Denny).
