He was born Dec. 4, 1931.
Mr. Miserlian retired in 2001 as the executive director of the Findlay Area Youth for Christ, after 45 years.

He was a member of the Rotary Club, served on the school board for Findlay schools, was a regional field member for the national Youth for Christ and was very involved in the community. His love for God and evangelism touched tens of thousands of youth and transformed countless lives. He will be remembered as a leader, a shepherd and a humble man, who through humor, vibrancy and a love for God, changed, enhanced and touched so many. Most of all, he was a devoted friend. He had been a Findlay resident since 1958. His close friends and family in the Detroit area will mourn the loss of their family head, spiritual leader and a terrific uncle. His devotion to family time was reflected in his commitment to travel regularly to the Detroit area to be part of the lives of his surviving family members. He was loved dearly and will be missed. God bless you.
