Lane Strock Obituary
He was born Jan. 10, 1921 in Portland to Raymond D. and Clara E. Patterson Strock. He was a graduate of Portland High School with the class of 1938 and of Indiana University. He joined the Navy during W.W. II and served as a corpsman on hospital ships in California and the Pacific Ocean during the War. He was in O.T. S. in Pennsylvania when the war ended. After his discharge from the Navy, he finished his college degree and began his life work ending his carrier at Arcola aluminum for 35 years. When his parents moved to Union City, he followed them moving to Sidney, Ohio, where he maintained an apartment coming to Union City on the weekends. After retirement his full-time residence became Union City.
He was a member of the Trinity Lutheran church in Union City, serving two terms as the church council president. He will be missed by his family for his generous nature and his love of family, by his friends and neighbors for his congenial personality.
