Kenneth Lee Null

Kenneth Lee Null, 83, passed away peacefully on November 3, 2026, in Canal Fulton, Ohio. Born on January 19, 1943, in Strasburg, Ohio, he was the son of the late Oakley and Marguerite Null.

Ken was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and man of faith whose life was defined by hard work, selflessness, and unconditional love for his family. He took great pride in providing for those he loved, never complained, and was always willing to lend a helping hand. His kindness and wonderful sense of humor brought laughter and joy to those around him.

Ken enjoyed life’s simple pleasures, especially spending time in Myrtle Beach, fishing on the pier, watching NASCAR races, caring for his beloved lawn mower, and cheering on the Massillon Tigers at football games. A man of strong faith, he was a devoted member of Divine Mercy Parish in Massillon, where he served as a Eucharistic Minister and greeter. A dedicated and hardworking man, Ken retired after many years at Lustrous Metal Coating, Inc., the Massillon Evening Independent, and Lake Cable Sunoco, and most recently at Buehler’s Fresh Foods, where he cherished the friendships he formed with his work family.

Above all, Ken's greatest joy was his family. He shared 61 wonderful years of marriage with his loving and devoted wife, Nancy Null, and was immensely proud of his children, Steve (Carrie) Null and Traci (Jeremy) Mers. He especially adored his grandchildren, Jack and Eve Null, and Isabella Zeigler. Being their Papa was one of his greatest blessings, and he treasured every moment spent with them.

Ken was preceded in death by his parents, Oakley and Marguerite Null; his brother, Allen Null; and his beloved grandson, Jack Null. He is survived by his loving wife, Nancy Null; his sister, Sandra Hier; his son, Steve (Carrie) Null; his daughter, Traci (Jeremy) Mers; his granddaughters, Eve Null and Isabella Zeigler; and many other loving family members.

The Family extends their heartfelt gratitude to Chapel Hill and Mercy Hospice for their exceptional care, dedication, and compassion shown to Ken and his family during this time. Their kindness and support will always be deeply appreciated.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated by Fr. Edward Gretchko at Divine Mercy Parish, St. Mary's Catholic Church at 11:00 am on November 16, 2026. A private family inurnment will follow at Sunset Hills Burial Park.
