Kenneth E. Degen

Our deepest prayers and condolences to all of Ken's family and friends ...we are sorry to hear of his passing. Many of us at NYSDOT have fond memories of Ken. He used to play hearts or pitch card games at lunchtime with Connie Myott, Terry Brown, Ed Beuel and several others back in the late '60's and early '70's. Yes he was on the credit union committee for a very long time where I got a loan for my first car in 1967 when I started. We all grew up, got married and started our families. Thanks...

Such a charmer! Ken was a great man, full of integrity, love for all and a smile to light the path. I will carry his spirit in my thoughts and hope to meet him at the pearly gates if I can manage to behave from now until then. God bless you girls!

So sorry to read of Ken Degan's passing. Back in the 1970's and 80's we were all members of the United Methodist Church of Islip and Karen, if I recall, taught in the Islip Community Nursery School. We were sorry to see you move away but we remember your family fondly.
We extend our Sincerest sympathy to all.

My deepest condolences to the Degen Family. I used to work with Ken and from what I remember everyone loved him. I saw him in Oct. for the DOT retiree lunch. He will be missed.
