Not sure what to say?

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. SO SORRY for your loss and my family!!!

I knew Ken for 53 years having met him in 1967. I remember because the Yom Kippur war was happening that year.
We were in Algebra class together.
Ken was the kind of kid sat in the back of the class but you knew it was his choice because he was naturally smart and had enormous amount of charisma.
We instantly became friends and hit it off.
We went through many adventures and some misadventures together. Too many to tell here. I will tell some at his rememberance.
Ken...

Ken was a kind, funny, and caring person. May his memories give Robin, his family, and friends the gift of remembering his laughter, talents, and love for them all.

I posted 3 or 4 other pictures and poems but so far THEY have only approved and allowed the LAST one (which is confusing)... I posted the one of you two on the boat, the Christmas photo in front of the tree and (of course) the Chuck Norris photo (I think... I'm trying to remember)... Wonder if they only allow one submission per...

So very sorry to hear of your loss, Robin. Keeping you in my prayers.

Ken always had a smile on his face and most times that and the twinkle in his eye was for Robin! My heart breaks for you but I know he is with you forever now. My condolences to you, your kids, his son and sister and all his grandkids. His other “family” of which I am a member will miss him immensely. Rest In Peace Kenny.
