I enjoyed coffee with Ken at Starbucks as we had some mutual friends' from Greenwood and Woodruff. He would bring his Greenwood High school yearbook to Starbucks and we found mutual friends and even read some of the classmates comments. It was a joy being around him and I will miss him May he rest in Peace.

Always looked forward to our discussions with Ken at Starbucks during the morning hours. He would share half of his sausage/egg biscuit with me. I will miss his witty comments that would draw a smile. Becky, we will miss you sharing Ken with us at Starbucks and know that God will help you help with the void that you will have in the days to cme.
