Dear Ingrid and family:
Our prayers are with you all during this difficult time! I will miss a wonderful soldier and man of God on this side of Eternity but I rejoice to know I will see him again. He was an encouragement to me and my ministry. He instilled in me while I was at Evangel AG the importantance of reaching boys for Christ and that is why I as a Pastor have always supported and encouraged Royal Rangers in the Churches I've pastored. Ken was a man of great faith and...

Dear Ken:

I'm sorry you have left us here on earth; I know you are in a better place. You will forever be in my mind as a positive influence in my life while I was a young man in Royal Rangers. Thanks for the chats we had at Pow-Wow, JLTC and District Council. You touched many young men and encouraged them to be their best as God had planned. You will be missed but we will see each other again.

Knutsen family,
I was deeply saddened when heard of Mr. Knutsen's passing. He was such a great and honorable man. He toched so many lifes, including mine. He was one of the best teacher's I ever had and I will always remember him. May god be with you all.

Mr. Knutson,

It’s a little late but I want to thank you for
accepting all of us as we were,
coaching us in football, track, and weight training,
teaching us how to do well in our mathematics
showing us the rewards of discipline and hard work,
listening and talking to us in earnest,
sharing your humor and positive zest for life,

You helped all of...

May the Lord be near at this sorrowful time..May His love, His word and His presence bring you comfort and peace of mind.
My thoughts and prayers will be with you all during this difficult time.

The Word of God says (paraphrased) that a true test of one's Christianity is by their fruit. Kendra, Ken & Kristen, you are each wonderful examples of the kind of man your father was. He was faithfull, he was steadfast, and he was a man of God! My memories of him are of a man who set an example for young boys and other men, a man who honored his God and his family and who loved the body of Christ.
May God surround you with His love, peace and joy even in the midst or your sorrow.

I will be forever grateful for the excellent teaching my sons Adam and Joel received from Mr. Knutsen while at Covenant Academy - and I know they enjoyed their time in Ski Club as well! Kendra, your dad's life and tesimony have touched so many. To Kendra and family, my prayers are with you.

Ken; You were a good friend, We will miss you. Jim Steffens
