Kent State graduate
Mitch McKenney, one of many who went from the BJ (after 18 years) to the Kent
State University faculty (in 2008), and Kim McKenney celebrated their 28th
wedding anniversary Saturday, November 19.
Mitch posted:
”28 years later, still smiling. I love
you, Kim!”
They spent their 2017
wedding anniversary in Paris, appropriately The City of Love. Paula Tucker and
I spent a week in Paris for one of our living-together anniversaries.
Mitch joined the BJ in 1998 as a deputy Metro editor, and later
features editor and online editor.
He came to the Beacon after stops at the Palm Beach (Florida) Post and
the Rochester (New York) Times-Union.
Mitch is associate professor and student media adviser at Kent
State School of Media and Journalism.
Mitch and Kim live in Hartville. Their children are Brynn McKenney, also a Kent
State graduate who still lives in Kent; Connor McKenney, a Kent State graduate
living in Hartville as is an elementary school teacher, and Suzanne McKenney
Newman.
Mitch and I had a pleasant chat at the BJ Newsroom Alumni reunion at Wingfoot Park this year.
