returned to Clearfield when he began working for Roe Implement in Mount Ayr. He later worked for Larsen Farms;

younger years enjoyed hunting and fishing. He enjoyed working in his yard and helping people. Kenneth had a great
sense of humor and thoroughly enjoyed playing jokes on people and telling stories. He was known as a 'power shopper' and
enjoyed making a day out of a shopping trip. Kenneth was a patient man, often when they were shopping, Helen would have
gone through three stores while Kenneth had gone through one!
