 OBITUARY for Melvin M. Kenoly, Sr.

News

Melvin M Kenoly, Sr.
(December 25, 1916 – August 13, 2006)

Melvin Merrel Kenoly, Sr., was born December 25, 1916, in Neodesha, Kansas.  His parents, Alonzo and Safronia Kenoly, raised all of their six children on the family farm.  Melvin was the youngest of  three boys and three girls.  After graduating from Neodesha High School, Melvin attended Independence Jr. College, where he met and married his beloved wife, Jeannette Wyatt in 1939.

In 1943, Melvin moved his family to Stockton, CA, to work in the shipyards.  He traveled to Stockton with other close friends and family that included the Andrew Norman and Luther Miller families.  The Kenolys, Normans and Millers were all neighbors in Kansas, and that continued once settled in California.

After employment in the shipyard, Melvin worked in many capacities before retiring from Tillie Lewis Foods, Inc. in 1981.

After retiring, Melvin started Mel’s Maintenance Service and continued working for a few more years.  After permanently retiring, Melvin and Jeannette would make their yearly summer trip back to Kansas and just enjoyed life.  

Melvin was baptized at an early age.  His family was known throughout Kansas for their singing at various churches.  Melvin had a beautiful singing voice and on rare occasions would sing publicly.  You could always hear him singing around the house or outside while he tended his yard.  And he showed off his singing ability by serenading his wife at their 50th wedding anniversary celebration.

Melvin was very religious and loved the Lord and always made sure his children were involved in church activities.  While living in Stockton, Melvin helped in the building of Second Baptist Church at the present site on which it stands.  He rededicated his life to the Lord later in life and became a member of Second Baptist Church. While at Second Baptist he served for a period as Church Treasurer.

Melvin was married to Jeannette Wyatt for 53 years.  After her passing in 1992, Melvin left Stockton and spent his final years in Vallejo, CA, with his eldest son Melvin Jr.  He will always be known as a quiet and gentle man, who loved his family and friends, and was always willing to help neighbors and others in need.

Melvin was preceded in death by his beloved wife Jeannette, and a dear daughter Sharon.  He is survived by his children:  Melvin, Jr., (Anita) of Vallejo, CA; Wyatt (Kathy) of Stockton, CA, Deanna Kenoly Allen of Plumas Lake, CA; Berril of Los Angeles, CA; Esther of Plumas Lake, CA; 11 grandchildren and 19 great-grandchildren.  Also, sister-in-law Lula Wyatt Sims of Alton, IL; three nieces; dear friend Luther Miller, and a host of family and friends. 

Visitation: Held Monday, August 21, 2006 from 3pm-7pm at Thompson Memorial Chapel 2118 E. Lafayette St. Stockton, California.

Services: Held Tuesday, August 22, 2006 11:00am at Second Baptist Church 2350 E Market St. Stockton, California.

Internment: Stockton Rural Cemetery 2350 Cemetery Ln. Stockton, California.

 Got a credit card balance? Your minimum monthly payment could double in 2006

FinancesMillions of consumers who carry monthly balances are getting hit this month with higher minimum payment requirements as card issuers start implementing the January 2003 guidelines issued by the Federal Reserve, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and other federal regulators.

MBNA, Citibank and Bank of America have announced they are going to double the minimum payment on credit card balances from 2% to 4%. Other card issuers are expected to make similar announcements in coming weeks. Increase amounts will vary from bank to bank as will the implementation date, but some consumers could see their minimum payments double.

 Seventh sister finds her family

GenealogyPublished Saturday, Dec 24, 2005
STOCKTON, CA -- The six Washington sisters have found their seventh.

Mildred Washington-Kenoly's jaw dropped when the phone rang nearly a week ago and a timid voice asked if she knew Ephraim Washington.

Of course she did. He was her father, and the voice on the other end of the line belonged to her older half-sister, Clauzell Washington-Turner.

"And I said, 'Oh my Lord. Woman, we've been searching for you forever,' " said Mildred Washington-Kenoly. "And then I could hear her start crying."

 How to Choose the Best Credit Card - Consumer Tips

Finances

Source: CardRatings.com

When was the last time you heard about a new and improved credit card? Probably the last time you watched television. When was the last time you received an offer to apply for a new credit card? Most likely the last time you checked the mail. These days, the competitiveness of card companies works in favor of consumers, who benefit from the ever-increasing incentive plans offered.

Considering that the average family holds seven credit cards, and the credit card debt held by Americans reaches $800 billion, there are things to consider before sending off an application for yet another credit card. Among them is this key: If you’re going to use a credit card, use it wisely. Second, choose the card that is going to work for you (low interest rates, incentives, and services), rather than allowing the credit card company to reap all of the benefits (annual fees, late fees, and high interest charges) from you.
