    My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family in this difficult time. Your dad/Grandpa was a very wonderful man! When I would take Lyndsay’s kids (my grandkids) to the park to play when I was babysitting them he would offer us all homemade cookies and man were they good! He will be missed!

    Ken taught my daughter, Katelyn, how to fish, me how to duck hunt and loved to run my snow plow and wood splitter. The hunting season has ended but the good memories will never end. Our condolences.
