George Pheasant Obituary
George Allen Pheasant, Sr., age 78 of Marion, passed away on Wednesday May 24, 2017 at his residence.
George entered into this world on November 25, 1938 to the late Frank and Laura (Burke) Pheasant in Delaware, OH. On May 4, 1957, he married the late Dorothy Jean Black in Marion, Ohio.
He worked the last 10 years in the Janitorial services at the Silver Lining.
He was a good father and provider. He enjoyed bowling, fishing, and his CB radio, with his handle being Pipe Wrench. He assisted in the Boy Scouts as well as the Girl Scouts, worked as a pipe fitter at the steel mill for many years, and was a former member of the Moose.
