Kenneth was born on April 25, 1941, to Herbert and Margaret Lube of Colby. Ken enjoyed life on their dairy farm with his siblings and graduated from Colby High School in 1959.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Herbert and Margaret Lube and his niece, Courtney DePippo.

Ken enjoyed watching football, following NASCAR, caring for animals and spending time with his family and friends. He was a kind hearted man always willing to lend a hand and will be missed by his family and friends. A private memorial will be held at a later date. Honorary pallbearers will be Mike Williams, Alex Williams, William Cahoon and John Lorenz.
