He was born December 9, 1933, on the family farm southeast of Edmond.  He was the fourth of seven children born to Joseph and Margaret (Jurgensmeier) Riemann. He attended and graduated from Edmond Consolidated School with the class of 1951. He served as a mechanic in the Army's 9th Engineer Battalion from 1956 to 1958.

In September 1952, Kenneth met the love of his life, Ruby Jones. They were married May 11, 1961 in Logan, KS. To this union one daughter, Debra Ann, was born.

From a very young age, Kenneth had a passion and love for farming. He worked on the family farm and hired out as a farmhand to family and neighbors until he took over the family farm in 1958. He expanded the farm over the years until his retirement in 2010. He was a member of the local American Legion and St. John's Catholic Church. He enjoyed college basketball, NFL football, playing pitch, reading Louis L'Amour books, gardening, and his family. In later years, he could be found riding his Polaris Ranger checking how the crops were growing.
