Kenton Lyle Classen

Kenton Lyle Classen, son of Ken and Sarah Classen of Humphrey, died Wednesday, August 31, 2011 at his home.

Kenton Lyle Classen was born May 15, 2006 in Norfolk to Ken and Sarah (Krings) Classen. He was baptized at St. Francis Catholic Church in Humphrey. In July of 2009, Kenton was diagnosed with brain cancer. After a year and a half of treatments, Kenton spent the remainder of his life surrounded by his family. On August 9, Kenton received his First Communion and Confirmation Sacraments.

Kenton enjoyed camping, fishing, playing with his brother and sister, and farming with his grandpas.

Kenton will forever be admired for his fight with cancer and will be a constant inspiration for his family and others. His crooked smile and goofy laugh will live in his families hearts forever.
