Carl L. Trease, 78, of Lucas, passed away early Sunday morning, March 17, 2019.
He was born March 10, 1941, in Mansfield, Ohio, one of ten children of Harley G. and Frances M. (Marsh) Trease.
He proudly served his country in the U.S. Army. Carl retired from Roadway Trucking with over 30 years of service. He was a regular at the Ashland Road location of McDonald’s where he met his friends every morning for breakfast. He enjoyed attending car shows in the summer and seeing all his friends.
Family was his most important priority and he doted on them. He supported Lucas youth sports and was a super fan of his grandchildren’s sports.
