Ken Repine
February 27, 2014
Ken Repine, born November 24, 1944, in Dayton, Ohio was healed of his cancer at 4 p.m. on February 25, 2014, when he entered the Gates of Heaven.
He was met at the Gates by his father and mother, Frank and Ruby Repine and his sister, Joyce, who passed away as an infant and his father-in-law, Johnnie Kinsley.
Loved ones left to cherish Ken’s memories include his wife of 45 years, Wanda Kinsley Repine; his two children Michelle Repine Bond (Peter) and Mike Repine (Jennifer) along with the “magnificent seven”; Jackson and Jenna Bond, Brenn, Kira, Zane, Cole and Reid Repine. Ken had many roles in life; son, brother, husband and daddy but the role he cherished the most was that of Papa to his seven grandchildren.
He is also survived by his sisters; Pam Repine Elmore (Floyd) and Pat Repine Kieft (Bob) and by Wanda’s family: Harry Kinsley (Gayle), Donna Phillips (Bruce) and Dora Thomley (Wayne) and his mother-in-law, Virginia Kinsley.
Ken retired from the Escambia County Sheriff’s Department in 2003 after 30 years. He truly enjoyed serving and protecting the people of this county. Ken’s retirement gave him many opportunities to cheer on his grandchildren at their many sporting events. He also greatly enjoyed bass fishing.
Ken was a member of First Baptist of Cottage Hill and Pensacola Hawg Hunters Bass Club and a former member of Panhandle Bass Club.
The family will receive friends at Faith Chapel Funeral Home North, 1000 S. Hwy 29, Cantonment, on Saturday, March 1, 2014, from 2-4 p.m.
The family has asked that anyone wishing to pay respects attend the visitation. Ken will be cremated and there will be no funeral service. The family requests that instead of sympathy cards you bring a letter with a fond memory of Ken to place in his fishing basket. -

Rest in Peace Lt. Repine. You were an example for all LEO. Prayers to your family.
Rest in peace, Ken! Thanks for always being a wonderful big brother to my dearest friend ever – Pat Repine Kieft. Someday, we will have a wonderful reunion in Heaven!
See you soon my friend.
Ken was a great brother-in-law and we enjoyed seeing who could tell the best fishing “truth” . Wayne and I will miss you on the water, but we know you are making the perfect cast each and every time now. Someday we will join you on Heaven’s shore.
What a great guy!
Rest well Ken. Our hope for the family is that they can find some peace in remembering the good times with you. I knew you for many years and as people in law enforcement always said, you did the job and were a professional.
