Keith Edward Zaynor

Keith embarked on a career in banking in Akron, Ohio. He worked with First National Bank, Valley Savings and Loan, and Lawson Milk Company before relocating to Columbus. There, he continued his career with The Limited, where he eventually retired. Shortly after he and Pearl were married, Keith spent 6 years in the Marine Corps Reserves. And after starting their family, he became a popular Scoutmaster.

Keith’s legacy to his family and friends will be his ever-present sense of humor and contagious laugh. He was spontaneous and had a great sense of adventurous fun. Everyone absolutely enjoyed his company. He never had a bad day.

Keith is survived by his loving wife of 68 years, Pearl A. (McLaughlin) Zaynor; his daughters, Susan and Philip Griesinger, Sharon Zaynor and son Jeffrey and Teri (Avalos) Zaynor. His greatest joy was his grandchildren Bryan Zaynor, Rebecca Zaynor, Dylan Zaynor, Cole Griesinger, and Halle (Griesinger) Milne. As well as his great grandchildren Jaylin Zaynor, Brayden Zaynor and a baby girl on the way. Keith also truly adored his nieces and nephews and large circle of friends.
