R. Willman Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Schellhaas & Sons F.H. & Cremation Svcs., Inc. - Franklin Park on Mar. 2, 2026.
R. Kenneth Willman, age 77, of Wexford, on Sunday, March 1, 2026. Born in Pittsburgh, PA to the late Richard O. & Nancy (Powers) Willman. Beloved husband for 31 years of Ruth (Antinone) Willman.

Loving father of Beth W. (Owen) Lefkon of Wilmington, DE and Carrie A. Willman of Bradford Woods. Proud Grandfather of Olive Lefkon, Emily Wirth, Anna Wirth, and John Wirth. Brother of the late Mary Ann (Mark) Goss, Debbie (Joseph) Budai, and Darlene (Howard) Graff.

Ken was a founding partner of the Willman & Arnold law firm, now known as Willman & Silvaggio. He was known locally for his work in civil defense and toxic tort litigation. Ken was an avid collector who approached his interests with both a deep intellectual curiosity (e.g., Native American art) and an irreverent sense of human (e.g., horror movies). You would often find Ken holding an Cuban cigar and a glass of fine wine while reminiscing with family about their travels together or watching a Pirates game. Above all, Ken treasured his family and friends.

Friends will be received from 2-4 & 6-8 p.m. on Wednesday, March 4th at Schellhaas & Sons Funeral Home, 1600 Stone Mansion Drive, Sewickley, PA 15143. Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 10:30 a.m. on Thursday, March 5th in Sts. John and Paul Church of Saint Luke the Evangelist Parish, 2586 Wexford Bayne Road, Sewickley, PA 15143. Entombment in Holy Savior Cemetery, Gibsonia.

In lieu of flowers family suggests donations to Sts. John & Paul Catholic Church, saintluke.net/giving.
