Kenneth L. Coen, a soul full of warmth and compassion, passed away on Nov. 15, 2023, at the age of 82 in Rice Lake, Wisconsin. Jesus came and took his hand and took him to meet his Heavenly Father.
Kenny was born on Oct. 28, 1941, to Mark and Rosell Coen in Luck, Wisconsin. Kenny was a 1960 graduate of Frederic High School. Kenny was selfless about helping anyone in need.
Among his many passions, Kenny loved his wife - his partner in adventures and life, his family, deer hunting - both bow and rifle, fishing, Harley Davidson motorcycles, taking and sharing pictures of the multitude and varied wildlife around their Frederic home, projects, carpentry, tattoos - telling his life’s stories on his body and apple crisp.
Leaving to celebrate his memory, Kenny is survived by his loving wife Sandy; children, Jamie Worrell and her husband David, Jenna Clemenson, Joel Coen and his wife Cindy, Josie Coen, Kimberly Boyer and her husband Dale, Joy Semborski and Justin Clonkey, Tonya Carlstrom and her husband Justin, and Joey Jensen and his wife Andrea; grandchildren, David Slack, Jared Coen, Hope Worrell, Bryson Clemenson and his wife Morgan, Tessa Ellefson and her husband Devyn, Nicole Coen and Paul Tricola, Zoey Bemis, Ridley Bemis, Kenny Sanford and his wife Tabitha, Matthew Sanford and his wife Samantha, Rachel Sanford, Acasia Clonkey, Hunter Carlstrom, Piper Carlstrom, Adalyn Jensen, Kora Jensen and Carly Jensen; great-grandchildren, Cleo Wren Clemenson, Bethany Tricola, Eleanor Tricola, Rosalyn Tricola, Tanner Sanford, Kaylee Sanford, Oliver Sanford and Charlotte Sanford; siblings, Sandi Brenizer, Kathy Coen, Bruce Coen and Dale Coen; and numerous nieces and nephews and friends.
He was preceded in death by his father, Mark Coen; mother, Rosell Coen; brothers, Derald Coen and Myron Coen; nephews, Michael Coen and Dylan Coen; brother-in-law, Earl Brenizer; and sister-in-law, Jean Coen.
