Kenneth Hackathorn

Kenny volunteered much of his valuable time for a great cause with helping others in need. With this, I never thought of him as just a ride-along on the ambulance, more so as a colleague, and a wise friend. As we moved in separate directions later, I would run into Ken. He usually reminded me about a call we had worked together several years past, and he was 25+ years older! I don't know if I will ever meet wonderful folks from this era like Ken, and Leland Denton who past recently. God only...

Jean and family, our deepest condolences for your loss. We didn't see family very often but have great memories of summer family picnics. Thoughts and prayers.
Juanita Hansford and family.

Penny and family,
I'm sorry to read about the loss of your father and husband. I remember hanging out with you and John Wallace and visiting with your brother. Those were fun times. Again, I am sorry for your loss.

So sorry for your loss. He worked with my dad Richard Hansford or known as squeaky at Goodyear and I remember him. He helped one time when I was getting my flu shot and got scared and about passed out at the Union Hall.

I remember well being welcome in your house as a teen! My sympathy to you, Tina, and to all your family on the loss of your dad.

I knew Kenny in the 80's when I was a paramedic here in Topeka from 76-91. Kenny was a real gentleman and someone with whom I always enjoyed working. I'm glad he had a long life and hope his family's good memories of him will help sustain them at this time. RIP Kenny.

Jean and Family,

Kenny and my husband, Max Yoho, were good friends at Goodyear, where Max worked as a machinist. Both retired in 1991, and I'm thinking Max may have been master-of-ceremonies at Kenny's retirement dinner. (He often volunteered to do that job for his retiring buddies back then.)

I didn't know Kenny because I married Max several years later, but his name drew my attention in the obituary section of today's newspaper because I'd heard Max talk of Kenny often....
