Kenneth Heimbach Jr Obituary Heimbach, Kenneth G. JR., age 76 of Orono, passed away peacefully and in the comfort of his family on Tuesday, October 24, 2017. Kenneth was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and friend. He enriched the lives of all who knew him and gave generously of himself throughout his life. Married to his wife Rita for over 50 years, they shared a beautiful friendship filled with unconditional love and eternal grace. For Kenneth, the most important thing in his life was the time he spent with his family and close friends. Kenneths fondest memories came from vacations spent in Maine and Florida, traveling and golfing internationally, afternoons watching football, time sharing stories around the dinner table, and every moment spent with his grandchildren at the Lake House. For 33 years Kenneth was employed by West Publishing Company as an Editorial Attorney. Kenneth had a gift with words. Whether it was edits to legal documents or revisions to the Blacks Law Dictionary, offering gratitude in thank you notes or humor in birthday greetings, sharing words of wisdom or sound advice, Kenneth was always sincere. Beyond this gift with words, was his gift as a listener. Kenneth had a genuine interest in all those he met and instantly made you feel like a long-time friend. Kenneth was reunited in heaven by his loving wife, Rita E. Heimbach; parents, Kenneth G. SR. and Rosemary C. Heimbach; and infant sister, Rosemary. Kenneth will be deeply missed by his four children, Kristin (Brian) Bunkenburg, Maureen (Mike) Miller, Ken (Amy) Heimbach, and Jennie (Craig) Kaiser; twelve grandchildren, Molly, Jack, Matthew, and Meghan Bunkenburg; Michael, Danny, and Clare Miller; Colin, Caroline, and Lilly Heimbach; Emily and Ryan Kaiser; sisters, Carol (Bill) Queenan, Susan Heimbach (Duane Ostlund), Mamie (Gary) Fabel; and many nieces, nephews and dear friends.
