Today we remember a dear friend and fellow DFLer. It's been two years since our community lost a champion of people, a teacher, an actor, a husband, a brother, a friend.
Today we celebrate the blessings we received in having known such a kind, and caring individual. We miss his laughter, his advice, his knowledge, his friendship, his passion and his love.
His contributions to us collectively and individually will never be forgotten.

Ken's D.F.L. Legacy
Ken served in the D.F.L at various levels. He first got involved back in 2004 within the Rice County D.F.L. as an at-large director. Ken said that he couldn't sit by any longer and wanted to fight for the change our country & state so desperately needed. In 2005 he was elected as chair of the Rice County D.F.L. when the chair at that time resigned. Ken served in that capacity until December 2005. He left that position after being elected as the Second Congressional District D.F.L.'s associate chair. In 2008 Ken was re-elected as the Second Congressional District's associate chair and he was also elected Historian of the Rice County D.F.L.
Ken made many contributions to his D.F.L. family over the years - from making his and Marcia's coffee shop open to D.F.L.'s candidates and the party itself to the wonderful words of wisdom & insights he gave to candidates, party members and friends.
Ken has been sorely missed over the last two years. His smile and laughter still echo in our hearts and minds. His words of wisdom still ring in our ears. His compassion and concern for others still lives on in our memories and our works.
We will always remember our friend Ken.
