(Harrison, Oh.) – A Harrison businessman has passed away.

William McKenna died on January 4 at the age of 64 after a battle with COVID-19.

McKenna was perhaps best known for his years of dedicated work at F&M MAFCO in Harrison. He started there before graduating from Elder High School, working with his father and brothers. 

William eventually became the Chief Operating Officer, helping the company grow into what it is today. 

Along the way, McKenna married the love of his life, Carole, and together they had three children and six grandchildren.

The public is invited to honor McKenna’s life at a drive-thru visitation at F&M MAFCO (9149 Dry Fork Road, Harrison, OH) on Thursday, January 14 from 4:00-8:00 p.m.

Memorial contributions can be made to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation or Elder High School.
