Ken is survived by his beloved wife, Linda; their six children and their spouses; 16 grandchildren (and spouses); 3 great-grandchildren; and his brother, Chuck (MaraLee).

Ken found great joy in spending time with his grandchildren, tending his garden, watching classic movies, and repairing anything he could get his hands on. He was known for his steady hands, generous heart, and willingness to help others.

He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who knew and loved him.
