The founder of the John Knox Village retirement centers has died in a one-car traffic crash in south Kansas City.
85-year old Kenneth Berg lived in Lee’s Summit. Berg was a Presbyterian minister in Iowa when he started the John Knox Village program that eventually had retirement communities in 17 states.
He lost it all, though, in the 1970s and 1980s in a flurry of lawsuit losses, and IRS tax lien, and a fraud conviction that sent him to prison.
