Service Details
Kenneth Ellis Myers, 71, passed away Monday, December 5, 2011, at his home after a lengthy but courageous battle with multiple myeloma. He was born January 19, 1940, in Huron, South Dakota to George and Eva Myers. He was honorably discharged from the U.S. Army in 1964 after six years of service.
Ken enjoyed fishing, hunting, traveling and going to the casino. He loved spending time with his family, especially the grandkids and the great grandkids. He had a great outlook on life and a personality that was loved by all who knew him. Ken always had time for a smoke, a good cup of coffee and his truck. He will truly be missed.

Regretfully, I couldn't make it to the service. I was planning on coming, but I became sick and could not make the drive. I am going to miss Uncle Ken. I am very upset that I didn't make it this last summer to the gathering he had in Iowa. I remember when he came out to Montana for the bowling tournament, it was so good to see him and how well he was doing. He was an inspiration to me. I wish we could have gotten together a little more, but the miles have separated us from doing that. It is hard to lose someone so dear to our hearts and he will always be remembered. My prayers are with all of you and God Bless!

Sorry to hear of the loss in your family. I remember seeing him occassionally at Prairie Meadows when I worked there. I remember him smiling with his bucket of coins. Thinking and praying for your family during your time of sorrow.
