Kenneth Radtke, 66, of Clearwater, FL, passed away suddenly on Friday, February 12, 2016, of a heart attack. He was born August 24, 1949, in Wausau, to the late Fred and Arvilla (Block) Radtke.
Ken or Kenner, as he was known, was a gentle guy who always had a smile on his face and a camera at his side. He was an avid photographer, who loved Florida's sunny weather and miles of sandy beaches. Ken was the owner of Ken's Graphics, Blue Dolphin Photography, and his latest adventure, Ken's Cookies, which was a huge success. He was a graduate of Madison Area Technical College and Northcentral Technical College.
Survivors include his sister, Barbara Nowitzke, and brother, Allen Radtke, both of Wausau; many cousins and friends in Wausau and Florida; special friends, the Sergio Jewell family in Florida; and let's not forget his four-legged pals, his dog Emma, and cat Sable.
A funeral service will be held on Sunday, February 21, 2016, at Helke Funeral Home, 302 Spruce St., Wausau. Family and friends may call beginning at 2:30 p.m. until the time of service at 4:00 p.m. Rev. Ted Gulhaugen of Zion Lutheran Church will officiate. Burial will be in Restlawn Memorial Park, town of Texas, later.
