Frank "Ward" Fenn

Frank “Ward” Fenn passed away peacefully on Wednesday, March 18, 2026, surrounded by the love of his family.

Born the son of the late Frank H. Fenn and Katherine “Salome” (Bigelow) Fenn, Ward built a life grounded in hard work, devotion, and simple joys. A lifelong farmer, he took great pride in the land he tended and the values it instilled. Ward also enjoyed the camaraderie of playing cards and the quiet satisfaction of wood-working, crafting pieces that reflected both his patience and his skill.

Ward is survived by his beloved wife of 67 years, Carol Ann. (Franklin) Fenn, with whom he shared a lifetime of partnership and unwavering love. He leaves behind four cherished children: W. Michael (Cheryl) Fenn, Mary F. (Jim Warren) Schultz, James F. (Kathryn) Fenn, and Genie F. (Richard) Evancho. He is also survived by his special niece, Gail Zachary; five grandchildren; and seven great‑grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and special friends from New York and Georgia all of whom brought him immense pride and joy.

Ward’s legacy lives on in the family he adored, the friendships he nurtured, and the countless memories shaped by his steady presence and generous spirit.

Arrangements will be announced by HARDISON FUNERAL HOMES, INC., 3648 Ransomville Road, Ransomville.
