Remembering Ken Denton...
« on: May 12, 2013, 07:36:00 PM »
Ken Denton died this morning.  Ken loved TradGang, as it is a fraternity of honorable men, and ethical traditional bowhunters.  His wife of 54 years, Phyllis Ann, asked me to let TradGang know of his passing.  He had been fighting esophageal cancer since February.  He was my father in law, and profoundly inspiring.  Some among us are more than men, they are giants; the prototypes for us to aspire to.  Ken was one of the giants.
