Junior was a longtime employee of McCubbin and Sons Farm Equipment working with his dad. He served for many years on the Taylor County Fair Board. He most recently worked at J. Edwards and Sons Trucking. Junior was a long-time trucker, farmer, and businessman. Junior professed faith in Christ and spent many years attending Liberty Baptist Church in Spurlington. He recently had been attending Feathersburg First Church of God. He served as a youth leader at many churches in the community. Junior truly had a servant’s heart.
JR was a proud board member of the Taylor County Fair Association, having served for many years on the board and even holding presidency for one year. JR was a giver, a giver of his heart, a giver of his time. A true genuine volunteer, who showed up and got the job done, without taking credit, or wanting a pat on his back! He over seen the fair concession stand and could be found on the grill with a big grin on his face. When JR was the grill master you knew the food would be tender and juicy, cooked to perfection! Having this responsibility is something him and his wife Kathy took seriously. They would created a supply list, and gather the items needed to cater to 14,000 people in attendance that week. No easy task! He would even take his vacation the week of the fair to better serve his community. Recently we purchased new bleachers that needed assembling, JR would be the first one their on Saturday mornings and always thinking of new events to host at the fairgrounds or to put a new spin on some old ones. We will deeply miss his presents with us at the meetings, lending advice or just cutting up, he would always have a comment about something!
Besides his wife and mother, Junior is survived by:
Two sons and one daughter: Stan McCubbin and his wife, Brandy, of Campbellsville; Andrea Goodman and her significant other, Rowdy Bragg, of Eliasville, TX; Todd McCubbin and his wife, Liz, of Campbellsville

KEN HARKER
Kenneth Scott Harker, 67, of Campbellsville, passed from this life Thursday, November 28, at Baptist Health Hardin in Elizabethtown. He was born on October 23, 1957, to the late Dr. Lawrence and Doris Harker in Kirksville, Missouri.
In 1979, at Eastern Kentucky University, he met the love of his life, Cathy Shields. They united in marriage June 25, 1983. He was proud of the life they built together, especially their two amazing children.

Ken was larger than life, with a personality to match. He had the best laugh and his smile was contagious. He was always able to crack a joke, even at the most inappropriate of times. He was honest to a fault and marched to the beat of his own drum.
Ken was the happiest when he was working or hunting with his German Shorthaired Pointers. The highlight of every Fall was the pheasant hunting trip to South Dakota with a very special group of men. He always said it wasn’t about how many birds they got, it was the joy of watching the dogs work. Thank you all for making his last hunting trip so awesome. He loved you all very much.
The family honored his wishes of cremation. Visitation will be at Parrott & Ramsey Funeral Home, Wednesday, December 4, 11:00 A.M. to 1:00 P.M., with a celebration of life service at 1:00 P.M by Rev. Ron Yankey.
Memorials are suggested to be made to the American Diabetes Association or pheasantsforever.org. and can be made online or at the funeral home. Ken was a pending organ recipient and an organ donor. The family encourages you to become an organ donor and help save a life.
