Roebuck, SC- Kenneth Voronin, a proud Clemson graduate who worked as a mechanical engineer for over 20 years at Solvay, passed away on Tuesday, April 3, 2018.  Ken's passions lied in his community service.  He was a member of the Optimist Club, worked with Citizen Scholars as a Mentor, mentored 5th Grade students at Roebuck Elementary School, and was a member and past President of the Roebuck Improvement Association.  Additionally, he worked with Chemistry Connection, a program to help teach elementary school youth about science and in recent years delivered meals as a volunteer at Mobile Meals of Spartanburg.
