Passed away today. From a reader:

Bishop Kenneth Untener, aged 66, died today. He was diagnosed with leukemia in January of this year. He had been the bishop of Saginaw, my home diocese, since 1980. While I cannot say that I was overly fond of him, de mortuis nihil nisi bonum, so I would just ask you to join me in praying for his repose, and especially in praying for the speedy selection of a successor to his see.
