KENNETH WILLIAM LAX, 69, formerly of Ely, dies



  KENNETH WILLIAM LAX, 69, passed away in Kiln, MS on Jan. 9, 2007. 

  He lived in Superior, WI in the summer and spent winters in warmer New 

Orleans.

  Kenneth was born outside of Ely on Sept. 27,1937. He attended Ely High 

School and worked in Ely a number of years. He always returned to the 

Iron Range as often as his work allowed him. 

  He was a steward for the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers 

for a number of years. He worked as an electrician on industrial projects 

in all parts of the United States for approximately 40 years. 

  After his retirement, he came back nearly every year to visit his family 

and friends on the Iron Range where he grew-up and went to school. He 

said some of the special events were the class reunions, the big get-

together of the Tornvill bunch at Semer's Beach in Ely and the Blueberry 

festival.

  He is survived by his siblings, Geraldine Tornfelt, Rudolf (Jim) Schuler, 

Janice Wagner, Marlene Benson, Sham (Hughes) Anderson, his three 

daughters, Rene', Rena and Jeris and several grandchildren.

  Kenneth was preceded in death by his grandparents, his parents, his 

daughter LaRae and his niece Susan. He will be at rest in the Pike River 

Cemetery near his grandfather's farm in Embarrass.

  Memorial services will be held at Virginia Minnesota.
