Having spent his whole life as a farmer and rancher, Kenneth was a life long member of the Kiowa community and loving father and grandfather of seven children and five grandchildren. His care for others and contagious presence of joy was shared between his entire family.
He was a very hard worker, but found solace in spending his mornings drinking coffee & playing cards.
Between farming hay and grass, Kenneth was an active lions club member and sports fan; showing support for Colorado teams including the Rockies, Broncos, and Nuggets.
Having spent many years in Kiowa, Kenneth's jovial spirit will be remembered in the church he helped build. His spirit will forever stay in the hearts of this community.
He is preceded in death by his wife, Virginia and daughter, LeighAnn. He is survived by his beloved children, Steven, Barbara, Nancy, David, James, Ken, and Susan; and grandchildren, Maggie, Addie, Destiny, Travis, and Tyler.
Visitation will be held at Olinger Hampden Mortuary in Denver, Colorado on October 9th, 2017 from 4pm-7pm.
Service will be held with Pastor Jim Emig Tuesday, October 10th, 2017, at 10am.
