Obituary

Ken McClish, a student journalist, part-time entrepreneur and father of one, died suddenly at the age of 35.

McClish was born in Edina, Minnesota but grew up mostly in near by Mounds View. He was a full-time student at Anoka Ramsey Community College and had planned on attending the University of Minnesota this coming Spring.

The bright father of one, was self-employed and had remodeled hundreds of homes over the past fifteen years. McClish loved adventure and was an outstanding student. He lived for a time in Orange County, California.

The family will receive visitors from 4 to 6 p.m. Wednesday at Carlson's Funeral Home, 410 Trig Street in Mounds View, Minnesota. Funeral service is Thursday at 1 p.m. with burial immediately after.

McClish is survived by his son Jordan, his brothers Chris and Corey(Katie), nephew Noah and his parents Bonnie and Brent.

  2. Grade: 7/10
    Mistakes:
    • Should be Minn. x2
    • Should be Anoka-Ramsey (hyphen)
    • Spring doesn't need to capitalized
    • Should be 15
    • Don't need a comma after father of one
