Many years Ken was such an inspiration to me. Always remember him giving so much of his time to help with the youth. He was someone God made unique that they could easily relate to and highly respected. A wonderful Grandpa to our 3 children, always making them laugh and enjoy coming to the farm for visits! A dedicated hard worker in day to day life! A man who always spoke from his heart, and meant so much to me. My sincere condolences to all the family at this very difficult time.

Condolence from Peter & Kim Hockey on September 2nd, 2013 12:47 PM

Kim and I are so sad to hear of Ken’s passing. Our condolences to Marlene, the children and grandchildren.

Kim and I had the honor of sharing dinner with Ken and Marlene this past month at Kaman and Adam’s wedding. I’ve had the opportunity to take in many baseball/hockey games with him and the grand kids, and cheering on the Prout boys at local soccer games. Kim and I have crashed many Parker/Prout family events over the years. And we spent many Sundays together at church.

In the 15 years I’ve known him, I recognized him as a wise man of God; a true role model, and what I consider one of the greatest grandfathers I’ve ever met.

Our thoughts and prayers are with all the family, and the many more that are grieving his loss.

With lots of love, and hugs,

Pete and Kim
