Not sure what to say?

When I think of 'Beaver', I smile!! A really good friend.

Marlene, I just saw this and have to tell you we will always remember and love Beev!! Thinking of of you. LOVE

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. May your memories of Beaver comfort you in the days to come. He was a delight to many!

I can only say how grateful to you all that shared. From my mom and I we appreciate you and love you

I’m so sorry and sad to here of Ken’s passing. He was always so
friendly, helpful and supportive at IBM. It was always nice to see him at IBM retiree gatherings. My thoughts and prayers are with Ken’s family.

I worked for IBM Austin from 1967 to 1977. It has been many years, but I remember Ken as a true gentleman with a wonderful sense of humor.

Ken was a Sweetheart. I am so sad at his passing. I met Ken thru Herbie Beard, who was also a long time volunteer of the House of Friends, an Alzheimer support program at Bethany United Methodist Church. His ready smile and kindnesses will long be remembered.

My condolences to the Bray family.

I am proud to have called Beaver a best friend, since 1957 at Berea College. In fact, I always felt he was like a brother. He was kind, generous, funny, loved his family, and had numerous true friends. My wife, Genie, and I will miss him terribly. We shared a lifetime of great memories. He will live on in the thoughts of everyone who was fortunate enough to have known him. I’m sure he has St. Peter laughing, playing golf and having a scotch in the clubhouse.
Our condolences and love to...
