Uncle Ken inducted into the NDSU Hall of Fame

Dave missed Dylan's last football game of the season, but for a very good reason. It was NDSU Homecoming and Uncle Ken (Dave's brother) was inducted into the NDSU Bison Hall of Fame in recognition of his football accomplishments while he played for the Bison, 1986 - 1991. Ken was the only football player recognized in the ceremony which drew in people from around the country including his family (Kathy & Lisa attended with Dave), friends, teammates and coaches. In his football career as a Free Safety, Ken achieved 3 national championship rings. Uncle Ken and his 4 beautiful daughters got to be in the homecoming parade and walk out on the football field at half-time. Below are his impressive stats and a few photos Dave took. Wish we had more photos!
