Boardman road Supt. Wilson retiring after 33 years

BOARDMAN

Road Superintendent Larry Wilson wasn’t quite sure what it would feel like to wake up today and not have to go to work.

He was eager to find out, though.

After 33 years working for the township, Wilson’s last day on the job before retiring was Thursday. He is succeeded by Marilyn Kenner, who served as chief deputy Mahoning County engineer before joining the township staff in 2013.

In an interview with The Vindicator, Wilson reflected on his career.

“It’s been very fulfilling,” he said. “In this day and age, a lot of people go from job to job. ... A lot of people don’t get that opportunity to spend it [their career] all in one place.”

His career with the township began in 1983.
