Allen “Ty” Marcinek passed away unexpectedly at the age of 51 on March 9, 2019 at his home. He was born on September 19, 1967 to his mother, Jo Ann Davis and father, John Marcinek in Woodland, California. He has one brother Johnny Marcinek, of Springfield, Missouri.
Allen is survived by his wife Dayna Maria McKnight, of the family home. They were united in marriage on May 4, 1996. He is survived by their four children, Tesha Smith and husband Daniel, Victor Marcinek and partner Alyssa Wiles, Nicholas Marcinek and partner Nicole Ackley, and Cole Marcinek and partner Latisha Coronado, all of Springfield, Missouri. He is also survived by his mother, Jo Ann Davis of Hermitage, Missouri and his aunt Linda Nadgwick of Nebraska.
Allen and Dayna have six grandchildren Forest Kojakanian, Taylor Hohmann, Joseph and Isaiah Hastings, Roman and Kaiden Marcinek.
Ty is also survived by his long-time friends, “Uncle” Archie Winters and Willie Lord. He always gave both such a hard time about driving Fords, but those same men in those Fords were the ones who always came to tow his Chevys.
Allen was proud of his craft as a brick and block mason. He competed in 2017 and 2018 Spec Mix Bricklayer 500. He enjoyed spending time in his garage, making memories with his family and friends. He had a love for his music, even enjoyed sharing with the neighbors whether they wanted to listen or not. He had a true passion for working on and building cars. One of his greatest enjoyments was his three dogs. He will be greatly missed by all of his family and friends.
Graveside services will be held at 2:00 p.m. Monday, March 18, 2019 at White Chapel Memorial Gardens.
