Ken,

You brought us a zest for life. I remember how you got a group of staid AMC'rs dancing at Wonalancet cabin after an exhausting hike in the White Mountains and how you tried to crawl down a trail after breaking your leg (before passing out).

We'll miss you,

Tanya Gray

Grampa,

You have left an everlasting impression on this family and countless friends you have made across the country.

Thank you for your support, guidance, and for showing us all the importance of living life to the fullest. Also thank you for teaching all of us to respect & enjoy the natural beauty of the great outdoors.

Thank you for loving Grammy with all of your heart and for giving her just 2 days shy of 62 years of happiness together. Your marriage and unconditional love is an inspiration to us all.

You have left us all with comforting memories; many that bring a smile to our faces.

I can still see you sitting in your chair clapping and stomping your feet to your favorite Big Band songs while adding an ocassional kazoo solo.

You are truly missed, but never forgotten.

May you rest in peace.

Love forever & always,
Terry
