Ken was a true gentleman and a soul mate to whomever took the time to talk with him. He was very religous person but did not hold it on his sleep. Hhe and JoAnn were a model, loving couple. Quincy is a better town because of him. God bless the Moenning Family and everyone they love!

To the entire Moenning family, Our thoughts & prayer’s are with you all at this sad time. Mr Moenning was so helpful to us when we bought his mom’s house on College. We had to call a couple times & ask questions about the house & yard. He was always so friendly & helpful to us. We’ve lived here 30 years & love it. You lost a very special man. May he rest in peace. Jeff & Joanne (Powers) Bergman 🙏🇺🇸
