They were blessed with three beautiful daughters, Samantha, Ashley, and Courtney, whom they also raised on the family farm, Ken never lost his desire to continue learning. He began his knowledge of grain merchandising while working at Cox Grain. In 1990, he began his own business, Golden West Agri Services.

The family remains proud to this day of the Golden West Art Show which he and Dawn founded to benefit children with disabilities, a cause that was very close to their hearts.
