I wish to extend my condolences to Ken's family. Ken and I were classmates at UT and crewmates in the Sailing Club. I want Andrew and Daniel to know that their father was a great sailor, a great fisherman, and a great friend.

I meet Ken through my husband Gregory. When he found out that I am a cat lover, he would tease me, because Janie loves cats as well. Painless was always there with a smile and KIND words. Painless you will be MISSED GREATLY!! Much love to Janie and the family.

Kenny and I grew up together and were close friends from 1st grade until we graduated from SJS and left for college. In the intervening years I have travelled all over the world finally ending up here in WA State while Kenny stayed in Houston. We continued to keep in very occasional touch over the years. We have a wealth of anecdotes from our long friendship. Weekends and summers at the beach house were memorable. One of our more exciting adventures was our post-high school Mexico "road trip" (the two of us with Mac) that included a couple of green faces after a stop at the tequila factory and a more enjoyable (and memorable!) ride through the streets of Mexico City with the daughter (and her girlfriend) of our hosts there (family friends). I was very sad to hear of his passing and I send my best wishes to his family. I am pleased to hear that he has left a wonderful legacy with his children and grandchildren. Kenny was an excellent friend and he will be missed. While I first heard of his passing from my sister still living in Houston, I was surprised to also see an article in the Aug 15th Sunday Seattle Times. I am sorry that I was unable to attend the gathering last week.

Dear Janie and Family,
We have known you for so many years and had so much fun! I remember the social times we went out to eat and have fun. Or those dynomite meals that Ken cooked at your house. He was a cute joker. My heart and help go to you. Whenever you need me, I am here. Love, Casey Wise

I never had the honor of meeting Dr. Creamer, but knew of him through his association with Patterson Dental. I have worked closely with Jay Elder for many years. I just wanted you to know that you have been in my thoughts and prayers.
God Bless.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Kenny's family and friends. I moved two houses down from him when I was twelve and have wonderful memories of our journies into adulthood! He was a good friend.
Sincerely,

My condolences to the Creamer family. Dr. Creamer was my 9 year old daughter's dentist, and he had recently treated her for an abcessed tooth. He was so kind and caring, giving us his home phone number, and calling to see how she was doing. He was really wonderful to her, and we will miss him very much.

Ken was long on friendship and caring. He was my friend first and my dentist second. Showed a ton of concern when recently I was dealing with bladder cancer while never letting on with his own issues. He would always joke with me about how crazy I was skydiving and I would joke with him about fishing. His friendship and his humor will be sorely missed. He has now moved on to the big ocean in the sky where there are no limits and he is now truly "Painless". His friends and family haven suffered with him during during his ordeal way now revel in the fact that he never gave up but can now rest in peace with the Lord. May his family now find peace with the Lord. Here's lookin up at ya buddy!

I remember how proud Ken was of his Grady-White and how big of a asset that he was to our Grady-White owners tournament. I am so sorry that he is no longer with us. You have my prayers and thoughts on this sad day.

When I was about four years old, my mother took me to Ken's dad's office for the first time. That was almost 50 years ago and I have been pleased to have a Creamer as my dentist ever since. Ken, like his father, was so friendly and caring. It was easy to know that they were giving you their best every time out. While he worked on my teeth, I grew to think of him as a friend. Ken's energy and zest for life were evident and he will be sorely missed. I am grateful for the abilities and heart that both he and his father shared with me.
My thoughts are with his family at this difficult time and with Ken on his new Journey.

I thank you all very much for signing the guest book. I am Ken's older son, Andrew. I didn't even know this guest book existed. It is so good to hear from friends near and far. I can't wait to share the entries with our family. Thanks again on behalf of the whole family.

Ken was one in a million. My wife and I were two of Ken's first patients. In fact, my wife first started calling him Dr Ken. Ken was more than just a dentist to us, he was a friend but then I am sure all of his patients felt that way. Ken's homespun manner and relaxing assurances perfectly compimented his extreme professionalism. More than anything else though, you just knew that he cared. Our deepest sympathies and condolences go out to Ken's family. The world is most definitely a lesser place without Ken. We are crushed by his untimely promotion back to his Lord's house. May God bless and keep his family.

My mother knew the family since she came to Houston in the late 1940's and said that she felt like a member of the family. Dr. Frank Creamer Sr. was our dentist and Ken took over when he retired. We thought very highly of all the family and grieved with them, as we do for Ken, who so loved the outdoors, had such a great sense of humour, showed personal interest in his patients, and cherished our environment.

When I was 4 years old, I tripped & fell, knocking some of my teeth into my bottom lip. My mom, Peggy Pittman, took me to Dr. Frank Creamer, kicking & screaming. That was about 41 years ago. Since then, my family, our in-laws, & generations have used Frank & then Ken, for our dental needs, when Frank retired. Ken Creamer referred me to Dr. Swiedom, which led to a miraculous reconstruction, by Dr. Mulherin, of my facial deformities, due to a birth defect. I will miss Ken Creamer very much as a personal friend. I hope you get to fish all you want in Heaven, Ken! Love, Janet McKenzie

Tom and I send our deepest sympathy to Ken's family. Ken and I worked at the UT Dental School in the Physiology Dept. and Tom was a UT medical student. We had many friends in the medical center and Ken was one of the best. We could always count on alot of smiles when Ken was around. His determination to go to dental school was fierce and we were delighted when he was accepted. Please know that your family is in our thoughts and prayers. Tom and Susan White
