What a wonderful Godly Man Uncle Ken was. We will never forget what a joy he was to be around always such a kind and gentle man. We also remember the visit to the Detroit Tiger Game when he was visiting us in Michigan a number of years ago. We love you Cowper family and if you need anything we are a short flight away. PS my latest memory was a visit to see Uncle kKn & Aunt Darlene last fall. They drove me out to dinner near there home. It was so nice to see how much they loved and cared for each other.
