Ellsworth, Kevin J. Age 56, of Chanhassen, passed away on May 15, 2017. Kevin lived a wonderful and full life. Married to his best friend and true love, Patty, for 30 years and surrounded by loving family and friends. The outdoors was his passion mountain bike racing, skiing, boating, camping, kayaking, canoeing, road biking, and simply listening to the Lake. Lake Superior was a special place for Kevin akin to a wellspring of energy and spiritual renewal. Knowing the Lake was only a short drive away brought peace to him on many challenging days. Preceded in death by too many; including beloved dog, Scooter. Survived by wife, Patricia and by dear Yeti. Loved and missed by cherished family and friends. Special thanks to the medical care crew, friends and co-workers who supported Kevin over the years. At Kevin's request, no service will be held; private interment. Every child deserves a bike. In lieu of flowers, memorials to Free Bikes 4 Kids (FB4K) if you so wish: FB4K PO Box 007 Long Lake, MN 55356 612-567-3245 fb4k.org/ The Lake is calling So I must go.
