H. Kenneth Clouse

As an only child, he grew up surrounded by his grandparents, aunts and uncles, and a bevy of beloved cousins.

Ken is survived by his wife of nearly 62 years, Pamela Lee Clouse, his children, M. Kathryn Canfield (Don), Alison Quinlivan (Mike), and Douglas Clouse (Kelly) and 9 wonderful grandchildren:

Hayley Canfield, Heather Shoaf (Adam), Kelly Canfield, Reece Canfield (Maddy), John Quinlivan, Cecilia Quinlivan, Jane Quinlivan, Anna Clouse, and Sophia Clouse.

He was always active in choir and chorus because he was blessed with a beautiful tenor voice. This began at Horace Mann High School in Gary, Indiana where he formed the singing group The Echoes. While continuing his education at Indiana University Ken and The Echoes performed in the surrounding states.

His professional life started at the Gary Post Tribune with his first job in Advertising Sales. Ken quickly rose to managerial positions there and continued his career at other papers across the country including: San Francisco Chronicle, The Arizona Republic and Pheonix Gazette and The New Hampshire Union Leader.

Ken was blessed and enjoyed over 20 years of retirement in the beautiful state of Arkansas.

Throughout his life he enjoyed many hobbies: reading (especially Mark Twain), golfing with his buddies and fishing alone.

The final years of Ken's life were spent in Carson City closer to his beloved family.
