Ken was a very nice Man      He was a teacher at Scranton Elementary and the kids just loved him      He also was a friend of my father Myron Pavlik       So sorry for your loss

We certainly still remember FAITHFUL KEN SUNDERMEIER !!!

But we know, if given the opportunity, he would not for one minute, trade the glory of being with his Savior for presence in this sin-cursed Earth.

I had the privilege of meeting Ken and speaking at the Chapel shortly before his death. Ken was a wonderful friend of Partners International and was kind enough to invite me to join him for a Wednesday night prayer service. We sang together, prayed for many in the congregation and shared a bit about all that is going on in the world. It was a privilege to pray for him as well as he knew then that he would be going to meet Jesus soon. Ken was a neat man and a true servant to many. 

My condolences to the Sundermeier family.   I've only known Pastor Ken about ten years, but knowing him has been a blessing in my life.  We first met while both praying on the sidewalk at Preterm abortion mill.  It was my first time, and Ken kindly taught me much of what he had learned in his many years of sidewalk counseling.  In addition to sidewalk witnessing at abortion clinics 3-4 days a week Ken regularly visited men in jails and prisons to teach them about Jesus, and continued helping them change their lives when they got out.    Pastor Ken challenged me to read the Bible more which brought me closer to our Lord.   It's easy to picture Ken being greeted in Heaven by hundreds of babies.

Condolences to the  Sundermeier Family.  I am thankful to have known Ken, his mother Bernice, and sisters. They were always very kind to me and Ken was a hoot to be around. Now he is in heaven and being a hoot with those who are with him. Ken believed in the resurrected Jesus, that’s what’s most important to Ken right now. Happy trails till we meet again.

I will always remember " gentle giant""Ken on the witnessstand in his court case in which he blew away the jury with his gentleness and kindness. He was righteous and bold for the unborn but also gentle in the eyes of others. God Rest your sweet soul Ken.

Pray let grace gift peace, 
the comfort of all who loved Pastor Ken,
secure knowing he shall be raised, incorruptible.

In Jesus' Precious Name.


19  Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, 
where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where 
thieves break through and steal:

20  But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, 
where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, 
and where thieves do not break through nor steal.

                                                                                             Matthew 6


51  Behold, I shew you a mystery; 
We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

52  In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, 
at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, 
and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, 
and we shall be changed.

53  For this corruptible must put on incorruption, 
and this mortal must put on immortality.

54  So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption,
and this mortal shall have put on immortality, 
then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, 
Death is swallowed up in victory.

55  O death, where is thy sting?  
O grave, where is thy victory?

56  The sting of death is sin; 
and the strength of sin is the law.

57  But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory 
through our Lord Jesus Christ.

58  Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, 
unmoveable, always abounding 
in the work of the Lord, 
forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain 
in the Lord.

                                                                               1 Corinthians 15

Reverend Sundermeier:  We miss you so much already.  You were the very best and most inspirational prolife advocate in Greater Cleveland.  You are now being celebrated by hundreds of thousands of preborn babies in heaven.  I remember how often Ken led us in deep prayer at the January 22 Youth rallies.  I remember how beautiful 
was his singing and guitar playing  for all of us at prolife events.  I remember all our discussions about right to life and about our struggle  to protect the right to life of so many needy  human beings including the unborn, the elderly, and other vulnerable human beings.

Ken was dedicated to the saving of babies lives.I will always remember him as the John the Baptist or the Peter ( the Rock) of the Pro Life movement here in Cleveland. When I talked to him I always left wondering have I done enough to help those innocent babies and their mothers. Thank you Ken for your steadfast witness. You are now in heaven, I believe,with the babies praising and adoring God. May the Lord God console his loved ones for their loss. Tim

To the Sundermeier family: 
We are sorry for this loss - yours and ours! 
Ken was a leader in many areas, but Pro-Life proved to be his finest hour.
"Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints."

I first met Ken as a kid in Bible School, his Aunt Gladys was married to my Uncle Herman Scheutzow( there both gone now).  My father was there nephew, and he once owned rental property on 49th St where I live now.   We're sorta of family, he once taught Bible school at church I went to as a kid.. 
Uncle Herman and Aunt Gladys was my Great Aunt and Uncle.  With Love Julie ❤️ Ann ❤️ Szenger.

It was sad news to hear today of Ken passing away. Ken is now is the presence of our Savior Jesus Christ. Ken was a solider in the battle we fight (Ephesians 6:12). Now his battle is over. 

Ken was a great friend of Diane and I. He was a friend and major supporter of Ohio Value Voters. He was never hesitate to offer a word of encouragement. Ken we will continue the fight for righteousness and the evil you stood against. 

We will see you soon. 

John Stover, President
Ohio Value Voters  


Ken has been a friend of Laurie and Myself for
Many years.he was a pastor at Christian Chapel
For about 13 years and a tireless worker for saving
Babies from abortion.
He was also of service to many people who often   desperately needed his help.
I am sure he will hear " well done my good and faithful servant"
