Kenneth L. Gunning

He grew up in Enid, Oklahoma and came to Pueblo, Colorado where he met his wife, Norma L. Hudgins. They married on September 23, 1953 and lived and worked in Florence, Colorado for Arthur Hudgins driving a truck. A year later they had their son, Richard on November 2,1954 in Florence. Ken went into the U.S. Army on January 5, 1955, and left the Army as a SP3 in January 1957. Their daughter, Cynthia was born in Chicago, Illinois on September 26,1956. After leaving the Army they moved to Commerce City, Colorado. Their daughter, Charlotte was born on May 29, 1958 in Denver.

Ken worked for American Beauty Macaroni as a long distance truck driver for as long as we can remember. He retired from American Beauty and finished his driving career with BECO Mail. They left Commerce City and moved to Holiday Hills in 2004 where he and Norma lived until he passed away.

Ken had 4 children, Mike Gunning (Mother, Sybil), Rick, Cindy, Charlotte (Mom, Norma). One daughter-in-Law Doreen, one Son-in-law Charlie. 11 grandchildren, and 8 great grandchildren.

He never knew a stranger, was able to talk to everyone whether he knew them or not. He would greet everyone with a bright and truthful smile. His nieces and nephews where treated just like any of his children. He loved and cherished them all.

He will be greatly missed by everyone that knew him!

Your loving family
