Thomas Franklin “Foltzy” Foltz II, passed away Monday, January 3, 2022 in Cleveland Clinic following a recent illness.

A son of Jackie D. Foltz Sr. and Dawna J. (Fisher) Foltz, Tom was born December 18, 1968 in Twin City Hospital at Dennison, Ohio.

Tom graduated from Claymont High School in 1988 then continued his education at Kent State University Tuscarawas Campus. Then on September 21, 1996, Tom married the former Wendy Roth and the couple raised two children, Christopher and Kassidy.

Tom was an avid golfer who loved being on any course he could and often times playing with his golf buddy and best friend, Dan Huntsman. He loved the outdoors, especially fishing and hunting.

He also enjoyed attending motocross races with his brothers, listening to rock and roll and country music and grilling out in his backyard. He also formerly coached the West Side Chargers Pee Wee Football team and was affectionately known as the “Bill Belichick” of Pee Wee Football.

He will be remembered for his wonderful sense of humor and his love for making others laugh.
