Kenneth's Story
Ken Stronski - 50 years condensed.
Here it is 2022.,.. Hard to believe it has been 50 years! After graduating in 1972 I spent several I years trying
to decide what I wanted to do. I needed direction so in early 1975 I joined the Army. I started what would become a career in Mapping and Engineering. After basic training I became an Artillery Surveyor graduating after 3 months of advanced schooling at Ft Sill Oklahoma.
I was assigned to Ft Carson "Colorado Springs" Colorado from 1976 through Dec 1978. I love Colorado.
My greatest adventure began during that time as I married the girl I fell in love with. She was and still is the love of my life. Yes, It is the girl in my THEN photo. We started our Family at the foot of Pikes Peak. These Mountains really are Purple Mountains Majesty. Our first Son was born in Aug of 1978 in Colorado Springs.
I ended my tour of service in Dec. 1978 settling back here in NJ and eventually transferred my Army experience to Civilian life. Enter Cable Television mapping and design.
My second Son was born on March 5th 1981 here in Woodbury and my Family was almost complete.
My career took us to Dallas, Tx in 1984 for a short time and again we moved back to NJ in 1985 where my Daughter was born in April. Family Complete.
I Bought my first home in June 1985 and moved to my second and present home here in Mantua Twp. In 1993
All of my kids have graduated College. One Son served in Iraq with great honor and distinction as a 1st Lt at a forward operating base. He earned the B...Expand for more

My other Son married a wonderful girl and has built a fine career in data analysis. They started a family and have given us 2 of our (6) Grandkids.
My Daughter married a great guy and her passion is Children and Early Childhood Education. They have given us 4 Grandkids. Two of those "twins" were born on my birthday on Feb 3 , 2012
So many blessings to be thankful for in my life.
That said I confess that my Wife and I have seen our share of struggles and have faced some of the greatest challenges that can be imagined. Through it all we have overcome and survived these life changing events with Love, fierce loyalty to each other and determined grit.
Currently, I am a Regional manager for Comcast Engineering Group "mapping and design" covering the State of New Jersey and the Metro Philadelphia and Wilmington area. I feel fortunate to work with a group of Engineering and construction coworkers that are second to none.
I hope for a simple peaceful retirement in the future with my Wife in what we consider our Florida Gulf Coast Paradise (Clearwater Area) and for now will enjoy life's down to earth simple pleasures close to home and heart here in South Jersey.
I would welcome hearing from those I have known all those years ago. I feel honored to have known you. As said best in a Beatles song, "In my life I love them all".
Retired now but still work part time remotely from home. I enjoy contributing to the industry that has been good to me. It’s also a nice supplement to my retirement income.
God Bless,
Ken
