Kenneth loyally served in the Army and went on to work as an electrician for Monsanto. He and Rene were married for 59 wonderful years. He was a wonderful husband, father, and grandfather, and a truly great man. Known for his reserved nature and strong work ethic, Kenneth had quiet wisdom that filled the room without needing words. A collector of miniature tractors and pigs, he brought joy and character to those around him. Kenneth was generous, kind, and deeply loved by all. He will be dearly missed by all who knew him.
