Null Sr., 79, of London died peacefully and ascended to heaven on July 15, 2021, to once again join his beloved wife, Betty, to dance the Texas Two-Step. He was born on Oct. 8, 1941, at home in Kellys Creek, W.Va., to Marvin and Sarah (Pugh) Null. Ken “Red” Null grew up on his family’s small farm alongside his five brothers and sister. In the early 1960s, Ken and his young bride, Betty, relocated to London and worked with the Burks family at C&E Construction Co. for 10 years until joining Ohio Edison. Ken’s love of adventure and fearlessness made him “the best damn OE tree trimmer” and was highlighted in many family stories. During the 1970s, Ken transferred to the Ohio Edison London Line Department. He spent many years as a lineman and “trouble man” responding to emergency calls before retiring in 1999. Ken was a man of immense passion at work and play. He enjoyed fishing, hunting, sports, cooking, and his little buddy, Zoe, the dog, whom he often proclaimed was smart enough to run for mayor of London. Ken’s humor, orneriness, and hardworking personality will be greatly missed by friends and family. However, we take great solace knowing Ken is rejoicing with Jesus and his beloved Betty.
