Kenneth E. Funk, 56 and a slot technical manager from Las Vegas, went missing after a boating incident on Lake Mead on June 19, 2004. A wave knocked Funk’s wife overboard; Funk grabbed a life jacket and jumped in to help. The boat was pushed away by wind, its engine would not restart, and Funk and his wife treaded water for about forty minutes. Exhausted, Funk reportedly told his wife to let him go and then slipped beneath the surface. The wife was later rescued but an extensive search failed to locate Funk, who was presumed to have drowned.

In May 2022 receding water at Lake Mead exposed multiple sets of human remains. In July 2022 a torso was found near Swim Beach; Funk’s family compared the build to his and hoped the remains might be his. The family had previously provided DNA samples and were awaiting results from the Clark County Medical Examiner’s Office.

Does anyone have information about Kenneth Funk, his last day on the lake, or what happened to boats and passengers that morning?
