Dear Marge,
My thoughts and prayers are with you and Cindy, Pam and their families at this time. He has done so many great things for people through the years. I hadn't realized he had been sick for many years. His story about his plane crash has always stayed with me: after the wreck he got up and out of the plane, went home, took a shower and then went to the hospital! Bless you, Love, Diana Cranney

My heart aches for your loss and everyone who was lucky enough to have known this very special man. He will be forever in our hearts.

May God surround and comfort you during this time.

He was a joy to to be around , uplifting everybody with his antics and dry humor. If I ever grow up I could only hope to be half of this kind of man. Ken, I bet there is good lift up there, fly high.

To the Pierson Family:

My heart goes out to you during this sad parting. Although you know you will eventually be together again, it still hurts to be without his wonderful wit and wisdom. I worked for Dr. Pierson at Shands as his secretary. He was a wonderful boss and I loved his sense of humor. He came in one day with a bruise on his forehead and I asked him what happened. He said he walked into his airplane wing. He said it seemed like a good idea at the time. He always...
