Mack Crase, age 85, of Canal Winchester, died Monday June 30, 2008 at the Chillicothe V/A Medical Center. Born February 9, 1923 in Lester, KY to the late Millard & Nannie (Breeding) Crase, he joined the U.S. Army in 1939 at the age of 16, spending most of WWII stationed in the Aleutian Islands. He later worked in a variety of jobs throughout the Midwest ranging from working in coal mines to various manufacturing and construction jobs.
His many interests included photography, gardening, music, hunting and travel. He was a constant family man, faithful provider, and life-long dreamer. We will deeply love and miss him…until we see him again.
