Uncle and Brother Nylan Gene Ficken died in Montana and was taken to his resting place in Adair, IOWA. The entire Ficken Family gathered together for the funeral. Dad (John) and Mom (Gretchen), John and Mona (far right) with their three children: Matthew, Sarah, Rachel (all living in Colorado), Pastor Dave and Kris ((far left) living in Plover, Wisconsin), Vicar Paul and Nichole (middle) with their four children: Timothy, Lily, Lucy, Nathaniel (all living in Rockton, Illinois).
We fondly remember Uncle Gene as an inspiration of courage and fortitude. Uncle Gene died from complications associated with Parkinson's Disease. We remember his excellent mechanical skills ever working as he fixed and maintained equipment on a ranch in Montana. Through the 20 years that he was in Montana he reached out to many people in the community who grew to love his kind heart as well as his expertise. We certainly will miss him.
