He lived through hard times and dangerous work but was always a devoted and loving husband and father. He is remembered for his many stories, which included incidents from Brazil involving jaguars and large snakes, the violence of the coal fields, the rigors of the depression, and auto strikes. Although he was a miner and an industrial worker, his heart was in the country.
He took great pleasure in his retirement to rural Michigan, he loved the forests, lakes, and fields. He loved to fish, and on his 3-acres, cultivated a variety and abundance of produce, growing figs and grafting other fruit trees, making wine from his own grapes, sharing the fruits of his labor with his family and friends, and overstocking the basement freezers.
His older daughter Elaine Marie Kinch has lived in Racine for many years. His younger daughter Sister Ana "Linda" Marzolo is a member of the Marist Missionary Sisters and has worked in Lima, Peru since 1967.
Survivors include his two children, Elaine Kinch of Racine, Sister Ana Marzolo of Lima, Peru; his two granddaughters, Judith (Mark Smithivas) Kinch of Chicago, IL and Rachel Marie Kinch of Racine; a great granddaughter, Amanda Smithivas; sisters, Mafalda Marzolo of Onna, Italy, Lucia Pezzopane of Brandon, Australia; brother-in-law, Steve Fenoglio of Pittsford, MI; sisters-in-law, Angeline Harlukowicz of Pittsford, MI, Meghi Viotti of Torino, Italy; nieces, nephews, other relatives and many dear friends.
