Not sure what to say?

It have been a year since he is home to be with his lord in heaven. I still think of him. Miss you so much, buddy.

I thought of him today, a few months shy of when he left this world. No words can convey how much I miss this man as a professor who helped me navigate the world and taught me so much.

I met Ken through my deaf friends at the Post Office. I had the pleasure of working with him at the Deaf Sertoma Club, along with my friend, Antonio Quintana. Later, Ken was one of my ASL professors at UCCS. I always will remember him as one of the kindest, caring people I know. Prayers offered up for Ken's family.

Ken was one of the first Deaf adults I met, at the CSDB Family Learning Vacation, when my son Brian was just a little guy. He seemed like such a kind and patient man, and proved to be so. He helped welcome Brian and my family into the Deaf Community. I know he will be immeasurably missed.

Ken was a nice man. Patient and respectful to all kinds of people. Never saw him become angry.

Diane and family, my prayers are with you. He was always there for anyone who needed him and as much as we will miss him, I wish you all comfort as the days ahead without him pass. With God's care may your hearts heal.

This time last year as David passed, he came and we said the rosary together. I started a Novena for him last week and feel closer to him that way. My love to you all.

Ken was a professor of mine. Rest in peace, Mr. Eurek. Thank you for teaching me sign language. You will be deeply missed.

....and known for teaching countless deaf high schoolers to drive! Ken was a part of my 20 years at CSDB, always friendly and helpful and tolerant of my so-slowly evolving ASL skills. So very sad to hear that he has passed away, and my condolences for this huge loss in your lives. I am honored to have known and worked with Ken.

Ken Eurek came into this world with a purpose and he had touched so many people's life in a very positive way. Such atmosphere he had created over the years has sent such goodwill into the mind and heart of not only the people who are living the life beyond those who are less fortunate. He looked beyond the horizon to give consideration of balancing out the even and the positive frames so things will fall in line of almost no one is left out. All in all, I have enjoyed every opportunity of...
