Myron Xenos, age 86, of North Ridgeville, Ohio, passed away peacefully on July 20, 2025, with his wife at his side. He was a loving husband, father and grandfather and a friend to many. He will always be remembered for his love for his family, kindness, sense of humor, and love of animals.

He was born August 3, 1938, in Cleveland, Ohio, to the late James and Margaret Xenos (nee Fanelli). He is survived by his beloved wife of 63 years, Daryl Xenos (nee Eckert), his daughters, Stacey Xenos-Maverick (Mike) and Stefanie Xenos, and his granddaughter, Taylor Golas.

Myron grew up in Rocky River, Ohio. As a young man he collected stamps, coins and their literature. He was also active in the Greek Orthodox Youth Association and was a member of the Masonic Order of DeMolay. After graduating from Rocky River High School, he attended Kent State University where he met his lovely wife and received his bachelor's degree in 1962. Myron proudly served in the United States Army (1958-1963).

In 1962, Myron opened his own public accounting firm and received his Certificate of Enrollment as an Enrolled Agent in 1974. He also served as the Finance Director for the City of Rocky River during the 1970's.

He became a member of the American Numismatic Association in 1961 and began selling numismatic literature in 1967. In 1986, he and his partner started a numismatic publishing company called The Money Tree and began holding mail bid auctions of numismatic literature, holding 32 auctions, with the last auction being held in 1999.

In 1978, Myron opened the first new business, a deli with an ice cream counter, in Beachcliff Market Square which was located in the old renovated Beachcliff Theater in Rocky River. The restaurant was a showcase to many antiques, including a Marantz Pianocorder that played music on magnetic tapes, and numerous stained-glass windows and chandeliers.

Over the years, Myron was involved in many other endeavors. He was a partner in a vending machine company, and he was a partner in real estate development. He was a collectibles and rare coin auctioneer on the WVIZ televised auction for over 40 years. He was also a partner/owner of harness racing horses.
