Friends Conduct 10 Years of Annual Snowball Benefits In His Memory

(Click for 2019 Benefit Details)

Ken was the co-founder of Eriksen Armstrong Corporation, an experienced, high-quality construction company serving the North Shore area for 30 years. As a gifted master builder, Ken took immense pride in his work while having the ability to appreciate all of God's creation. Kenneth Russell Armstrong, 53, passed away Jan. 5, 2011.

Several FOFH-IL Board members had the privilege of working with Ken, whose father and grandfather were veterans, during the Illinois grass roots fundraising campaign to match funds with the national Fisher House Foundation to build Illinois' first Fisher House on Hines VA Hospital grounds. He gave generously of his time, personal funds plus personal and business contacts to this cause he found so inspiring.
