He is survived by his wife, Dixie; his mother, Dorothy; a brother, Dave (Lisa) Johnson.  He is further survived by many nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.

Ken's family would like to thank Dr. Lubner, Dr. Abbott, Dr. Lawson and Dr. Gopal.  Since he was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2018 he has had many fine nurses and Dr.'s at U.W. that took great care of him.  The Britney's at Agrace Hospice helped him in the end.

As per Ken's wishes no services will be held.
