Jon Charles Emmich, 76, of Blanchester, Ohio passed away June 4, 2024 at his home.  He was born July 14, 1947 in Cincinnati and was raised in Anderson Township.  After graduating high school, Jon served in the U.S. Army during Vietnam.

Jon’s hobbies included cooking, bird watching, adding items to his many personal collections, woodworking, and tinkering with anything mechanical from clocks to cars.  He had a wonderful sense of humor which will be missed by family and friends.  Upon his retirement, Jon and his wife Elaine built a state-of-the-art log cabin in which they resided for the rest of their years.
