In December 2009, they moved to their current residence in Bartlesville, OK. He was a master mechanic; he fixed every lawn mower and weed eater in the neighborhood. Kenny enjoyed fishing, working on the farm, and fixing anything that had wheels. During their retirement years Ken and Emma played cards every morning, most days Emma swore he cheated.
