Kenneth B. "Ken" Gross

Ken was a great friend, neighbor and tennis player, winning many neighbor hood tournaments. I will miss my conversations with Ken. I am glad I got to know him.

Ken and his wife Glenda were great neighbors of ours for many years. He was a very kind and humble man but was a force to be dealt with on the tennis court. He had a very relaxed style but could place the ball exactly where you weren't and won many Big Bend Woods Championship trophies! He also had a good sense of humor, and he coaxed me into his backyard to see his banana tree. I was shocked to see that it had a couple of bunches of bananas. But seeing is believing. He later told me they...

I met Ken while I attended high school with his son Mike. Mike and I want on to Missouri State together and Ken had the chore of driving all my stuff down to the dorm for me. He was always so kind to me. I will forever miss Ken Glenda and Mike Eddie Davis

I grew up in Manchester on the same street as the Gross family. I have always loved Ken. He and Glenda were great neighbors. I’m so sorry to hear this news. Love and prayers to his entire family. ❤

Ken was a very nice man. I enjoyed his company and playing tennis with and against him at Big Bend Woods B&T. He was a heck of a mixed doubles player! My condolences to the family.

My sincere condolences to his children. A kind, bright, interesting man. I was the victim of his spinning towering volleys while playing tennis at Big Bend Woods Bath and Tennis club. While riding along to north county I observed Ken lovingly disagreeing with Glenda. I learn that from Ken. I lived at 810 Big Bend Woods with my wife Sharon and kids Jeff and Aubree in the late 70s and 80s. Bob Pelc
