"Our life here on earth is only for a flashing moment; but we will be together with Christ forever." -Kenneth Smith
Our hero and our anchor went to be with Jesus on December 5th 2020. Kenneth grew up as a boy in Haven Kansas near fields of sunflowers and we picture him walking with Jesus through a field of sunflowers in Heaven today. If you knew Kenneth you knew he loved talking about Heaven so we know he is healed, whole and happy today in his heavenly home. To view his tribute video please click on the "Mementos" button above and in lieu of flowers or gifts, please feel free to leave a message or memory of your own of Kenneth. Beth would love to read them!

Ken was an amazing, Godly man, full of wisdom. He will be greatly missed. So happy to know we will see him again in Heaven.

I honor this mighty man of God of whom I got to assist as a caregiver for a year. I fell in love with Mr. Ken and the whole family almost immediately! They are easy to love

The impact that Ken and Beth had on my life is one that I will always cherish. They taught me that each person has skills unique to them and if you draw out those skills it makes the a team of unique individuals a strong group that gets so much more done. That you can be both business and ministry. And that everyone is worthy of your love, caring and joy. Ken was a strong tower that helped so many and a smile and joy for all of us who knew him. There are so many great memories, going to the garment district shopping, Ken stepping into the hall to explain to Billy Soto that he didn’t need to be yelling and swearing as he walked down the LADC hall, Ken and Beth on Late Night TV, He will be missed.
