Kenneth Lee Swindle

"Ken" Kenneth Lee Swindle passed away on June 11, 2020 at his home after a brief illness. He was 67. Ken grew up and attended schools in Butte. He lived as an adult for many years in Prescott, AZ and moved back to Montana 22 years ago. Ken loved fishing, hunting, camping and being outdoors in his home state. We remember Ken with love and appreciation for his wry humor and quick wit, kind and generous spirit, his culinary skills and love of cooking including getting his 3-bean chili recipe published in a National Game Cookbook, and his innate ability to connect with others which brought him friends and kindred spirits throughout the years. He was easy to love. Ken is preceded in death by his parents Hazel and George Swindle who had retired in Prescott, AZ and is survived by his former wife, Ramona and daughter, Heather, his older brother Don and sisters Mary and Ann, nieces Stephanie, Karen, Tanya Swindle, Michelle Miller Johnson, Kirsten Schneider and nephews David Miller, Jason Swindle and Jeff Schneider, and cousins including Jim, Sharon, Susie and Ralph Anderson and loving Anaconda friends. He will be missed. A private celebration of life and spreading ashes will take place in Montana.
