To Barb and the Cicuto family,
I just learned today about Ken, and I am quite upset. I was a resident in radiology at MMC from 1997 to 2001, and Ken seemed to take a special interest in me at a time when I needed encouragement. He ultimately was the reason I decided to pursue a fellowship in IR - I remember thinking if I could just be like him, then I will have a successful career. Here I am, 18 years later. I am so sad right now. He was such a kind, compassionate and knowledgeable physician, and a wonderful person as well. Please feel free to call me on my cell at 617 308-1815 if you ever want to hear some good stories. May God bless you all.

Condolences in the loss of a good man. I am a Keys relative and am wondering if the Cicuto children are descended from Percival (Percy) Keys, father of Dean Keys, father of Teresa Keys. If so, please contact me: [email protected].

Ken was a brilliant physician I was privileged to share my internship and we did our residencies at that great but now gone hospital OHM. While Ken did radiology, Walter Keller did surgery and I did internal medicine. We shared many hours, memories, and laughs. I've thought about him many times over the years. He is missed.

Dear Barbara and Family,

My prayers and thoughts are with you. I thank Ken from the bottom of my heart for his friendship with my son Tom. Tom thought the world of Ken, "An excellent and caring physician and a good man". May God give you comfort and strength.

With love and sincere condolences,

My sincere condolences go out to his family and colleagues. He certainly will be missed. I had the pleasure to work with him. Sincerely, one of the most down to earth, caring, compassionate radiologist that I know. Not to mention how compassionate he was about his work. Always respectful and very much a gentleman.

Respectfully,

I had the pleasure of working with Ken in ultrasound at the Osteopathic hospital in Portland, Maine before 1978 and he was instrumental in support while my mother was a patient at Maine Medical Center. The medical community of Portland and surrounding cities has benefited by his knowledge, expertise and compassion for his patients in radiology over the last 35 years. Truly a great man and will be sorely missed by all who knew him. I am saddened to learn of his passing. My deepest sympathies to friends and family.
