At the age of four, the family moved to Ringsted, Iowa. He attended school in Hoprig and was a 1955 graduate of Ringsted High School.
On June 17, 1957, he was united in marriage to Nancy Cooke in Princeton, Missouri. The couple made their home in Graettinger.
Kenny worked 13 years for Spies Farm Lands. He then worked a short time for Rohlin Construction before starting part-time at the Graettinger Coop Elevator where he ultimately retired at the age of 62. Since his retirement, Ken had been driving bus for Forest Ridge.
