Kenneth H. Lehman,79, of Munroe Falls passed away peacefully on May 7, 2025.
Born on September 25, 1945 in Toledo, OH to the late Ralph and Betty (nee: Snyder) Lehman. Ken lived a full and generous life. He graduated from the University of Toledo, with a degree in civil engineering and began his long and dedicated career as a tire test engineer at The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company. Ken spent his entire professional life at Goodyear, retiring happily after 42 years of service.
Ken was an avid athlete and competitor. In his younger years, he excelled in tennis, consistently ranking among the top players in his league. A passionate fan of the Cleveland Cavaliers and Browns, Ken rarely missed a game and cheered his teams on with unwavering loyalty. He also loved to golf, playing weekly and proudly leading his local golf league.
Ken gave generously of his time, volunteering often and supporting his church, St. Eugene's Catholic Church, with a quiet dedication. More than anything, Ken valued his family. He was a devoted husband to his beloved wife Linda for 48 years, a loving father to his children, son, Chris (Jenny) Lehman and daughter, Betsy Lehman and her spouse Ken Irwin and a proud grandfather to Brady and Morgan. Ken's warmth, humor, and steady presence will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
The family will receive guests Monday May 12, 2025 in the Dunn-Quigley Funeral Home 3333 Kent Rd Stow, OH from 4-7 pm. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at 11:00am on Tuesday May 13 in St Eugene's Catholic Church at Cuyahoga Falls, OH. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to St. Eugene's Church or a charity of your choice in Ken's memory.

Ken and I were grade school best friends back in Toledo and just got reunited back in August 2023 when we found each other, he in Cleveland and me in Pittsburgh. It was a span of 65 years that we last saw each other since we were 12 years old. We talked for hours. We met twice for lunch and I was trying to schedule another next week when I found out about this. I will miss my friend and will love him till I go. RIP Kenny

Cousin Kenny was a great guy. I remember staying with Aunt Betty in Toledo(across from the Zoo) and he was also so kind to his little cousin. Barb (Nieset) Kowaleski
