Born November 15, 1952 – Passed Away January 22, 2025
Ken was a spirited and talented craftsman passed away at the age of 72. Kenneth, affectionately known as Kenny or Ken, spent the majority of his life in Tillamook. The family legacy goes back as far as Wee Willie restaurant in Netarts Bay where they were famous for pies, burgers and seafood.
Ken was a highly skilled brick mason and builder who was always eager to lend a hand when needed, and enjoyed dedicating his time as a lifetime member of the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation Tillamook Chapter. He was their first member.
Aside from his passion for hunting– what mattered to Ken the most was his grandchildren.
He cherished the time he spent with them, frequenting any sporting event he could catch and was eager to learn the rules of their different chosen sports so he could keep score and follow along.
Ken is survived by his son, Bruce and (Ashley) Williams; son, Garrett Williams; Sister Kathy Deskin, of Pasco Washington; Sister Patti and (Eric) Dahlquist of Damascus; and beloved grandchildren Brock, Lily, Carter, Keegan, Crew and Ellie.
