Not sure what to say?

I was so saddened to hear of Ken’s passing. I don’t remember which class reunion I saw him at last, but I lost touch with him after that. I’ll always remember the fun times we had in the Camden band for 6 yrs and all the wonderful trips to 6 Flags and marching contests! Kenny would do anything to help you and was such a true southern gentleman. Rest is God’s arms, my friend!

I am thankful to have had the time in our later years to reconnect with a cousin who still had the smile an laughter I remembered from our annual family gathering of our youth, I regret that We weren't closer through out our adult lives, but found it so refreshing when we did reconnect he still carried the happy loving traits I remembered from our childhood. I hope he is in a much better place now. You were loved Dear Cousin by my siblings an myself. You will be remembered.

Great man and friend he will be deeply missed .

Sorry to hear another Riley cousin has crossed the bar. Remembering the happy holidays with the Riley girls and boys.

What a special guy! Kenny and I were the best of friends in junior high and high school. You could not find a kinder, sweeter more caring guy! I was profoundly saddened to learn of his passing! What a blessing he’s no longer in pain. Rest in God’s peace my friend!

Ken was- great friend to our family and always encouraging everyone .He had a heart of gold and helped everyone who needed a lift up. His service to the Bank of Bearden and other locations was outstanding . Go high on that mountain and know your legacy will echo into eternity . Blessings and joy to all friends !

Anytime you went into the bank, Ken was ready to talk! He was always there to help you with anything you needed.

He was a great guy ❤

Ken was a very friendly neighbor to me and my husband Vernon Hall ,Ken will truly be missed
