Ken was a very kind person. He made deep connections with people he met that led to lasting friendships. He loved the Chiefs, car racing, his flowers, hummingbirds and all animals. He had lived full time at the Lake for 50+ years and loved it, this was his paradise. One of his favorite things was the daily happy hour gathering with his neighbors. Friends became family and we will all miss him.

Preceeded in death by both parents, wife Karen Halteman, son Kenneth Halteman II, brother Rick Halteman, sister Connie Edie and son-in-law Jeff Childress.
