Tributes to Ken Crowell

On Monday, hundreds of people gathered just outside Tiberius overlooking the Sea of Galilee to honor Ken Crowell.

Crowell, 79, passed away last week. Many testified that his life and work made a tremendous impact on Tiberius, the Galilee region, the Body of Messiah within Israel and the individual lives of thousands if not millions. He founded many companies in Israel, including Galtronics, a company that has employed thousands of Israelis since its founding.

After Ken's funeral, we talked with several people about his life and what a profound impact he had on them. Here's excerpts from those interviews.

They include Pastor David Davis, founder of Kehilat HaCarmel; Eitan Oved, a city councilman from Tiberius; Michael Elliot, general manager of Galtronics; Rachel Leonard, Crowell's secretary for nine years; and Pastor Brian Blank from Redding, Calif.

All paid tribute to a Godly man and a life well lived. Watch below.
