Very sad to hear of Ken's passing. He always had a smile or some type of story to tell at the UE School district. We both shared the passion of cruises and our latest adventures.

My sincere condolences. Kenny and I worked together on the very first Heartmobile at Superior Ambulance for several years. He was an usher in my wedding and was Godfather to one of my children. We shared many good times and laughs together. I have never known a finer or more giving person. He will be missed.

Dear Family,
I last saw Ken at Wegmans and we laughed at some stories we shared from Superior Ambulance days where we worked many 24 hour shifts together. He was a dedicated and serious care giver there with a great sense of humor. When you were down he was the guy that pulled you back up. Other than my Dad I don't know of a finer man that will always have my respect. I hope they have Cadillacs in Heaven for him. God Bless Ken and my best thoughts for him always.

Rosalie and family-My heart goes out to you. You are in my thoughts-Marleen
