Kenneth “Earl” Kingdon was born on October 26, 1937 in the family home in Tantallon, SK, to Ken and Dorothy Kingdon (Baker). Earl attended school at Hazelcliff for Grade 1 & 2, Perth for Grades 3 – 8, Tantallon for Grades 9 & 10, then Rocanville for Grades 11 & 12. His graduating class consisted of him and two girls. On July 30, 1960 Earl married Daisy Ann Rose Duce at St. Thomas Anglican Church in Rocanville, SK. They moved to the farm north of Rocanville, one mile from where Earl grew up.

Ten months later, along came Wayne in October, followed by Kenneth in 1968, Rhonda in 1972 and Kevin in 1977.
Earl and Daisy farmed and ran a dairy until 1976. They continued to keep cattle and farmed until 2000. After 41 years on the farm, Earl and Daisy retired and moved to Rocanville in 2001 where Earl remained until last year when he had a stroke that changed life for him.
