He was the son of John and Marie (Burden) Shockey. His stepfather, Melvin Huebner, who helped raise him, preceded him in death. On Nov 8, 1947, he married Roselyn M. Byrne, who survives in Wapak. Also surviving are two daughters: Darlene M. (Gary) Binkley and Sharon A. (William) Sammetinger, both of Wapak; a daughter-in-law, Esther Shockey, WV; two brothers: Larry (Judy), Englewood, and William, FL; and eight grandchildren and fifteen great-grandchildren. Deceased are a son and sister, both linked below. A graduate of Blume High School, he enlisted with the United States Army. He served from Jan 15, 1946 with the Military Police Battalion in Germany, before being honorably discharged on Jul 13, 1947. His proudest military memory was being selected to guard a supply of antibiotics, being sent by rail to our troops in Germany. Upon returning home, he worked for a short time with Turner’s Toys before beginning a long career with the Wapakoneta Machine Shop. He was truly a man with a strong work ethic. He enjoyed his years at the Machine Shop, working in the Heat Treating Department, retiring after 38 years of service. He was a member of St. Joseph Catholic Church. He had a passion for politics and he was always up to date on current events. On the occasions that a news channel wasn’t on, he could be found cheering on The Ohio State University Buckeyes, or Notre Dame. However, his first love was family. He was a caring man, who was always putting others before himself. Family was first. He and his wife spent countless hours and miles together, touring the country in their car, always on the back roads. He was one of a kind, and will be deeply missed. A Mass of Christian Burial will be at St. Joseph Catholic Church, Wapak, with Rev. Daniel Hunt officiating. Burial will follow in St. Joseph Catholic Cemetery, with military rites by the Veterans of Foreign Wars, Post 8445.
