His marriage to Wilma Taylor took place on August 7, 1966 in Cambridge. Kenneth served in the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War and was awarded the Purple Heart for injuries he received in battle. He was employed at International Harvester in East Moline from 1966 until retiring in 1996. He had a huge passion for antiques cars, family, and his herd of cats that were his friends, as he would say.
