From Rasmusson-Bacon Funeral Home & Crematory obituary, Nevada and Maxwell, Story County, Iowa:

Kenneth “KD” DeWayne Hohenberger, 88, of Nevada passed away Thursday, February 11, 2016, at Rolling Green Village in Nevada.

Kenneth was born April 11, 1927, in Grundy County, Iowa to Samuel and Iona (Meyers) Hohenberger. He graduated from Grundy Center High School and was united in marriage to Leona Meyer on June 20, 1950, in Grundy Center. Kenneth earned a degree in Agricultural Engineering from Iowa State and was working on earning his Master’s degree when his father’s health began to fail. In 1954 he returned to help on the family farm in Grundy County and continued to farm until his retirement in 1998. In 2001 he and his wife moved to Windsor Oaks in Ames. Kenneth attended the Nevada Baptist Church and enjoyed playing pool, bridge and putting together puzzles. He loved to tinker and always had to have something to work on.

Kenneth is survived by his daughter, Laura (Steve) Lillard of Nevada; his granddaughter, Justena (Steven) Fletchall of Ankeny; and his three great-grandchildren: Samuel, Isaac and Benjamin and one on the way.
