Ken attended school in Chicago for radio broadcasting before transferring to Central Technical Institute in Kansas City, MO for radio broadcasting and radio equipment repair. He worked in Madison for WHA before moving to Chilton in 1949 when he began working for WHKW.

In his retirement, he drove 19 years for the Calumet County Aging & Disability Resource Center and volunteered for meals on wheels until after his 90th birthday. In his free time, Ken enjoyed his time spent with his grandchildren, playing cards, square dancing, and traveling the world with his wife. He was proud to have traveled to Ireland, Israel, Japan, Germany, Austria, England, and throughout the United States.
Ken will be remembered as a jack of all trades who could fix nearly everything and was referred to by his friends as the "Little Man Who Could".
