Ken was very creative, and especially talented in wood working.  He made numerous furniture and decorative items that are cherished by his family.  He and Betty enjoyed going up north to their "cabin".  They often invited family there,  so everyone could enjoy time with them in this special place.  Countless memories were made in the great outdoors exploring, fishing and other fun things.  He enjoyed traveling, and was an avid  Packer and Brewer fan.
