Ken Kubsch Scholarship
Sept 19, 1942- Dec 15, 2009
The Ken Kubsch Scholarship was created to honor a caring and humble Board certified family and internal medicine doctor who simply went by the name, Kenny. He loved people, regardless of position, status, or income. His smile and laugh were infectious, and his focus was always on brightening your day, never on himself.
Kenny was a faithful friend and was always willing to take compassionate care of our families’ medical needs, regardless of his own schedule or priorities. He never passed up an opportunity to educate those around him with various articles that he had researched and had such an enthusiasm for learning.
The Ken Kubsch Scholarship is awarded at Kenny's Alma Mater, Manitowoc Lincoln High School to a student who is interested in history or science, both passions of Kenny.
John and Kathy Lochner, along with Dan and Carrie Whetter and the Weyers Family Foundations, good friends of the Kubsch's have contributed the seed money to establish this scholarship. The endowment drive is underway. If you would like to help keep Kenny's memory alive and help students follow their educational dream, please contact Kim LaViolette Mosteller here.
