Ken Wolfkill

Kenneth Wayne Wolfkill was born in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma on Saturday, December 16, 1944 to Foster and Elizabeth Wolfkill. He passed on Friday, December 30 in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, at the age of 78, after a courageous battle against cancer Kenneth was Ken to family and friends and “honey bear” to his wife. He was an Air Force veteran during the Vietnam War. He married the love of his life, Wanda Ruth Morrow, July 11, 1962 in Disney, Oklahoma. They raised two children, Karen and John. When a promotion at work would have caused him to miss baseball games and dance recitals, he declined the promotion. He fiercely loved his family and rarely missed a game, recital, performance, or special event for his kids at school, church, or even college. Ken was an Insurance and Investment Advisor at American Fidelity for 30 years, which was fitting as he loved to help others with their finances and investments. Ken was a fun-loving guy with a great sense of humor. He always had a joke for you. If you were part of the McDonald’s Breakfast Club, you likely have a napkin card he drew for you or maybe some sugar packets he slipped into your coat pocket without you knowing. Ken loved to travel and drove his wife and kids to every state in the US in their RV. During the last 18 years, he enjoyed taking his three grandkids on adventures as well. While he was an intelligent, humorous, hard-working, always ready to help, never-met-a-stranger kind of guy, Ken would want you to know that he was also "suave and debonaire". Ken is survived by, Wife, Wanda of Broken Arrow, Oklahoma Son, John Wolfkill & Julie of Littleton, Colorado Son-In-Law, Mark Buffington of Tulsa, Oklahoma Grandchildren, Jaiden Wolfkill, Jonas Wolfkill, Mollie Buffington Brother, Jim Wolfkill & Sharon of Whitney, Texas Sister, Elizabeth Gibson & Gene of Pryor, Oklahoma Preceded in death by parents and his loving daughter Karen Wolfkill-Buffington In lieu of flowers, you may make a donation to the Karen Wolfkill-Buffington Scholarship in honor of Ken.
