Kenneth P. Kling

KENNETH P. KLING (1940-2023), age 82, of Brecksville, Ohio peacefully entered the presence of the Lord on May 18, 2023. He was the son of Bernice and Willis Haeseker (both deceased). Ken was a graduate of St. Joseph High School (1958). He was interested in technology, engineering, and anything electrical. Ken was an amateur radio operator since 1955 (W8VZT) and tracked the Sputnik Soviet satellite in 1957 as it sent radio signals back to earth. Professionally, he was a Vice President and Partner at Comptrol and subsequently the Founder/President of MC2 until his retirement. Ken taught electrical engineering application at Lorain Community College and was a long-standing member of the Cleveland Engineering Society and Christ the King Church in North Olmsted.
