Elaine and family
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I knew Ken many many years ago when my mom worked at Mid-Am (Linda Goede) I just remember when I was young how he always had a smile and how nice he was. Sorry to hear of his passing. Gods blessings Amy (Goede) Graunke

Dear Elaine and family,

I worked with Ken for a few short years from 1977 to 1980, and then saw him occasionally after that. I was a young guy, directly out of college. I appreciated everything Ken did to help me during those years. He was knowledgeable and willing to teach. He was a friend.

Time flies by and with a busy life, I unfortunately have not remained in contact with people like Ken that have influenced me through my life. I am grateful for having known him.

May you all find peace in what the Lord offers us all. I have to believe Ken and the Lord have shared a few stories and laughs already. May Ken rest in peace!

With sympathy,

It came as a shock to me to hear that Ken was gravely ill and that he had passed away just a few days after hearing that news. I am glad I got to see him over the summer. I imagine that he slowed down some over the years, but an early memory I have of him was when he came to Elbow Lake to paint our house. It was a large two story structure with 30 foot eaves, but I remember my Dad saying that he painted it in two days. It took me about a week when I painted it a couple of times. He didn't waste any time getting there, either. It was 135 miles and 14 towns between Winsted and Elbow. But, I also recall my Dad asking him, when he arrived, how long it took him to get there. He looked at his watch and replied, "An hour and a half". You can do the math. He will be missed.

Bruce, I am so sorry to hear about your loss. If your dad was anything like you, he was an amazing man. Happy thoughts to you and your family during this difficult time. ~Stephanie Otto (Rogers)
