The Sondalles and the Bartols and the Lake. Wonderful memories of a long time ago and wonderful, kind, caring, generous people. Ray knew Ken from professional organizations,
but the time at the Lake was special. Our Blessings and Sympathy to you all.

Jane and family,
We are so saddened to learn of your loss. We have been reminiscing about all the fun times we had together over the years from Elkhorn to Merrill. Ken was the greatest guy and his sense of humor was over the top. He will certainly be missed by so many people. Prayers for all of you at this time.

It was so sad reading the passing of Ken. My brother Bob and my dad Jack and I enjoyed Hunting next door to Ken and his family so very much. He was always willing to lend us what ever we needed and never asked nothing in return. My brother ,dad, and I always enjoyed the comradery of the current and past hunts with him and of course a {few ] drinks included. Those are memories that are just priceless to me and will cherish forever. Ken was just a great guy.
Rest in peace my friend.

Unable to make the visitation or funeral due to some physical conditions. Ken was a very good friend of mine who worked in our Hockey program and was fun to be with. It has been a while since I have seen him. As far as I am concerned he left us too early. He was a fine man in all ways. My sincere thoughts are with the family. James Grant of Waupun

Deepest sympathy to Jane and all the families related to Kenny Sondalle. The world was a better and happier place with Ken in its midst. Life did not treat him fair.......he deserved so much more, but God had a bigger plan for him. Let it be comforting to know he is at peace now in the greater hereafter. It's a comforting thought to know that someday we will all be together......and surely Kennys sense of humor will entertain us all again. Prayers and sincere condolences to everyone. RIP Ken!

May peace be with you. We have fond memories of Ken while working with him at DOC. His dedication to the staff and the offenders will long be remembered. We enjoyed many Wisconsin Correctional Association conferences with him as well. We found him to be a kind, understanding leader who tried to make sure that things were done right. He leaves a lasting legacy.

Jane, my name is Dennis Janis, aka "DJ". I worked as the Business Directer at RCI. Ken regularly visited the institution and I always stopped by to say "Hi" whenever I was at DAI.
He was a capable and decent man and I loved working with him.
He stopped by the institution one time when the Warden and I were talking in the parking lot. I had my wife's Cadallic (Opel) parked in the ADO spot and he commented that he must be paying me too much money. I told him my wife had a good job and he said "mine too".
I was sad to see him retire...and I'm very sad that we lost him. My most sincere condolences.
