Expertise you can depend on for your loved ones
Ray & Marian Koch were co-founders, along with
Judge Jane Lucal and together they established
Serving Our Seniors. Ray & Marian were
instrumental in laying the foundation that has
caused Serving Our Seniors to do the work that
we do today.
To pay tribute to Ray & Marian for improving
the quality of life for senior citizens living in Erie
County, Serving Our Seniors established The Ray
& Marian Koch Fund. This fund is used to help
senior citizens with urgent needs, when no other
social service is available to address the senior
citizens’ problem. Examples of how The Ray &
Marian Koch Fund has been used in the past
are: Paying for a doctor appointment,
purchasing food when Serving Our
Seniors has found an older adult with no
food in their home, paying parking fees for
a patient who didn’t have the money and
needed to see her specialist in Cleveland,
clothes for a senior who had nothing
to wear but the outft she had on, and
the treatment of an infected tooth & its
extraction.
To make a tax deductible donation to
The Ray & Marian Koch Fund make your
donation payable to Serving Our Seniors,
310 E. Boalt Street, Sandusky.
