Ken Duffy (82) – husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather passed on Sunday, June 28th. Married to his wife Diane for 58 years and lived most years Bloomingdale, IL. (since ‘62). After a long successful career with Jewel Foods, Ken retired many years ago with 40+ yrs in the meat-cutters union. Ken enjoyed many happy years in retirement with a focus on fishing, traveling and fawning over his family – especially his eight grandchildren and two great grandchildren! His family and his dog (Chloe) were always in his thoughts. He was an avid fisherman, craftsman and collector. A true American patriot, Ken proudly served in the U.S. Army – 82nd Airborne and Military Police (Korea, late 1950’s). He was a master of the grill and an eclectic chef, a wildlife artist, ice cream connoisseur – A great man who was always proud of his children and thankful for the opportunity to help. Our dad “Papa Ken” will be forever missed and remain loved in our hearts!
