I was saddened to hear that Ken passed away on March 1, and you and your families are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. It was wonderful living across the street from you on Chino Avenue while we were growing up, and I have fond memories of attending Mt. View School together. I still have wonderful memories of your parents, and the Gemmills were great neighbors.
