His battle with chronic medical issues in recent years demonstrated his courage in facing life challenges with unrelenting strength.

He retired after a 20-year career with commendations and awards from the Cold War and Gulf War. He went on to work in administrative positions at the University of Central Florida, retiring again in 2020. Ken was active in Christian Family Fellowship and enjoyed the excitement of participating in and finishing local community, remote and virtual endurance running and duathlon events.
