Ken was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. He moved his family to Granada Hills, California in 1964, then to Nevada in 1981. Ken's family brought him much joy and happiness. He enjoyed all sports, (especially watching his children and grandchildren play), reading, "cruising", and working in the yard.
