WINDSOR-Kenneth W. Ulrich, age 86, entered into eternal life to be with Jesus Christ his Savior on Monday, Nov. 12, 2012, at his home. He was born on Jan. 31, 1926, in Rock Springs, the son of Walter and Helen (Hinz) Ulrich. Ken proudly served in the U.S. Navy from 1944 until 1946. He was united in marriage to Virginia “Ginny” Bork on June 28, 1958. He was employed with Baraboo Frosted Foods (which became Baraboo Sysco Foods) for 50 years, retiring on Dec. 1, 2001. He was the consummate sales professional and took great pride in his sales achievements. But more than anything, Ken valued most the many friendships he made during his 50 years of service.

He is survived by his wife of 54 years, Ginny; children, Linda (Bill) Hallman, Glenda (Barry) McQuade, Debra (Harley) Ragan, and Gary (Wendy) Ulrich; grandchildren, Stacy Namio, Jillian Crawford, Ryan Ulrich, Heather Buttchen, Jennifer Terry, Emily Ragan, and Gavin Hallman; great-grandchildren, Samantha Namio and Katrina Vike; and many nieces and nephews.
