Kenneth (Ken) was born on September 15, 1927 to Lee and Violet Gregg. He was raised in Oakdale, and graduated from Oakdale High School where he met his wife Jean. They were married for 70 years. Kenneth and Jean bought his father’s garage, Oakdale Garage, Inc. which is still in operation today. Ken liked to work, it had a great importance in his life and he worked long hours during his career. But his passion was hunting and fishing. Whenever he could get away with his buddies, or with his family in tow, he would go fishing. He would take a yearly hunting trip, to a different state, to hunt Mule Deer.
Through investments he and Jean made; he was able to retire at 56 years old. This gave Ken many good years to pursue his passions, with Jean beside him. They would take yearly extended fishing and hunting trips in their RV to Mexico and Canada. Ken passed on July 25, 2019, almost making it to 92 years old. He was preceded in death by his wife Jean and sister Ruth.
He is survived by his four children, Sandy (Richard) Worley, Carey (Patty) Gregg, Jody (Dennis) Scroggins, and Suzanne (Chris) Lang; nine grandchildren and 15 great grandchildren. Services at Oakdale Citizens Cemetery Wednesday, July 31 at 10 a.m.
