Ken was a hardworker during our "BOMC" days. Always willing to get down from that
forklift and give a helping hand. Quick witted and always a good sport when the joke was on him. Ken, Deb Staub, and I got the shipments out of there. So sorry
to hear of your loss, Donna. Ken was one
of the "Good" Guys.
