Kenneth Robert Rewa, 59, of Hopkins, MI passed away Sunday, August 2, 2020 at his home. Born July 5, 1961 in Allegan, he was the son of Marilyn (VandenBerg) Rewa and the late Robert J. Rewa. Kenneth worked in the con- crete industry for much of his life. Throughout his career he had worked for VanLaan Concrete before going into business for himself as the owner and operator of Action Concrete.

He would mow lawns and plow snow for friends, neighbors and family but would never accept payment for his time. Kenneth enjoyed going for walks to relax. His greatest joy came from being a grandfather and he cherished the time the he spent with his family.
