Kenneth Cover retired at the age of 55. He was a very successful bank executive and attended banking school. Ken was an avid golfer all of his life. He was a member of the Simi Valley Golf Course and in 2014, he moved to Frisco Lakes Texas to follow his daughter and family. Ken immediately bought a golf cart and joined the Frisco Lake Men’s Golf Club. He soon gained many friends in the Golf Club and they would always end up at the clubhouse after a day of golf. A few years ago, he was finally able to achieve his lifelong dream of living on the golf course. He would sit on his patio with his wife and watch the golfers drive by and tee off at the 11th hole. Besides golf, Ken’s biggest joy was his family. He loved his wife, daughter, son in law, and grandkids very much. He would go to every single school event or sport event for his grandkids that he could. The past years his grandkids mostly played on elite soccer teams so Ken and Dot would travel all over the nation to watch them play. Just recently in June, he drove to Utah to watch his granddaughter play in a prestigious tournament. He was their biggest fan and would attend games whether it was extremely cold, raining, or very hot. He was known as the adopted grandpa at the soccer fields because everyone knew him. His sweet smile and support for his grandkids and their team touched everyone. Ken also loved to travel. Ken and his wife Dot have traveled to so many places together and he also traveled a lot with his daughter and family. In the summer, Ken loved to hang out at his daughter’s house in their pool. They always had BBQ’s and get togethers. Playing volleyball in the pool, listening to music, etc. So many fond memories.
Ken is survived by his beloved wife of 54 years, Dorothy (Dot) Cover, his daughter Kim Schumacher, grandson Caden Schumacher, granddaughter Kylee Schumacher, son in law Darren Schumacher, and son Corey Cover.
A celebration of life memorial service for Kenneth will be held Wednesday, December 14, 2022 at 2:00 PM at Stonebriar Funeral Home and Cremation Services, 10375 Preston Road, Frisco, TX 75033.
