AL HUNSICKER'S WIDOW PASSES AWAY

 

Lillian Hunsicker, widow of former BJ printer Al Hunsicker, passed away Sunday, July 18.

Al was a regular at the monthly gathering of former BJ workers at Papa Joe’s Restaurant in the Merriman Valley. So was I.

Pam Hunsicker Coy, Lillian and Al’s daughter, is married to Don Coy, whose father, the late Al Coy, was on the Cuyahoga Falls Amateur Baseball Association board of directors with me and former Cuyahoga Falls High baseball coach John Anspach.

Al and I had spirited discussions at the CFABA meetings. Today we both are early members of the CFABA Hall of Fame. There’s a plaque in the Quirk Building in the Falls testifying to that.

Pam and my daughter, Monnie Ann, were friends at Monongah High and often were together at parties and dinners.
