• We will forever have great memories of fishing with Kenny...wish we had one more time out with him...loved seeing him at the store and being asked when we were headed back out with him...loved his fishing and hunting stories...we keep you in our thoughts and prayers... ~ Randy,Brynn and Crotteau family Spearfish,SD (4/4/2020)
• I have so many great memories of Kenny. Whether playing cards or telling hunting stories or playing softball. He was always soft spoken and contemplative. I enjoyed talking with him. He was never judgmental and seemed to find something good about everyone. I remember one time he shot a huge muley and couldn't drag it out alone so he stopped over at Billsburg where Grant and I were working on someones pkp. He was really excited and said, "I'll buy you guys a steak if you'll help me drag this deer out". We went with him and drug the deer out. We had so much fun we told him to forget the steak we had all the pay we needed getting to be a part of the fun. I always got a real kick out of his humor at card games. Of course, people called him "no toes" and I remember how the toe of his shoe would curl up when we played softball. I will miss Kenny. He has been a good friend for the lions share of my life. My deepest sympathy to you his family ~ Glenn Parsons Philip SD (4/4/2020)

• Knew Kenny well as a hwy Supt. Attended many county functions with Kenny and got to know him quite well. We shared some good fishing and hunting stories together. We played many card games with other hwy Supt and Kenny was an enjoyable person to be around. I so enjoyed our many hours of discussion about county matters and options to handle county issues. Was also able to enjoy his year as president of the hwy Supt association. Kenny will be missed and offer my sympathy to his family.

• What a man Kenny was. We at AGE Corp loved working on county projects for him and his staff. A truly good man the county had and we appreciated him. At a wrestling tourney one Saturday he said, "did I show my deer hunting pictures?" He proceeded to show them and then stated this which I never forgot. "what makes life so good is work, deer hunting and wrastling" My the lord be with all of you that are his family. Thank you for sharing him with us. Rest in peace dear friend. ~ Gary Johnson AGE CORP Fort Pierre, SD (4/1/2020)
• So sorry to hear of your loss. Thoughts and Prayers to you all during this hard time! I played softball with Kenny and still remember those days well!

Kenny will definitely be missed by many! ~ Leslie O'Connell Rapid City, South Dakota (4/1/2020)
