Kalbfleisch family: My sincerest heartfelt condolences to you during this time. Dr. K was without a doubt the best Dr. and employer, ever. Not only did he take the best care of all the animals and the clients but he took extra special care of his employees. Both your dad and mom cared for all so very much. Dr. K was such a fabulous employer that no other possible employer could reach that bar. That made it impossible to work for others. He will be so missed, talking to him over the phone taking all his wisdom in, is a memory I will cherish. He worried about all of his former employees and cared so much. The world will not be the same without him!!

I'm sorry to hear of Dr. Ken's passing. He was the best vet in the Nampa area for years. He cared for all my animals plus all the strays that I'd take him when his clinic was on Midland Blvd. He was a caring person and will be missed by all.

Our hearts and lives were blessed knowing Ken with his kindness and love for the four legged and two legged. Being able to share meals and stories of family and faith was the cherry on top. We miss your face, hugs and laughter. Until we meet again...love you much. 😘

We were sorry to hear of Ken's passing but know that he is out of pain & with his wife with our Lord. Over the years that Ken took care of our pets we became great friends. He was a very caring man. He has left a wonderful legacy.

Dr. K was a very special person. He was kind, gentle, and compassionate with animals and their owners. He cared for us and our dogs for many years, as did Cindy and the rest of the staff at Kindness. He was always there, day or night, to provide medical assistance and counsel. Dr. K was like a Dad to me. He was an incredible man who will be greatly missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.

We are saddened to hear of your loss. Dr. Ken took care of our animals for almost all of his career and we have been lost without his care and that of Cindy and the rest of the staff at Kindness. We had no idea he was ill. You are all in our thoughts and prayers.

Our prayers are with Ken's family at this time, as he was a very special person and valuable asset to the those that knew him, and the community at large. The entire Ford family knew him since he returned to Nampa in the 60's to start his practice. He was such a kind, gentle, and compassionate person. I know heaven is now graced with his presence.
