Not sure what to say?

Christell,
Ken was so kind. I am honored to have known Ken and to have had the opportunity to work with him and learn from him at the AG's Office. I consider him a mentor and a friend. I will always treasure the time I spent with him. I know that he Loved you dearly and he always had a twinkle in his eyes when he spoke of you. Please take care of yourself.

KEN WAS A LIFE LONG FRIEND. WE WORKED TOGETHER FOR ALOT OF YEARS ON THE PD. HE TAUGHT ME ALOT. NOT JUST POLICE WORK BUT ABOUT LIFE. I'LL ALWAYS LOVE THIS MAN!

Dear Christell,

I met Ken on one of the first investigations I ever did. I had never known a REAL cop. Boy was I star struck! He gave me so much good advice and treated me like an equal. As we became friends, I was lucky enough to meet you as well and enjoyed dinners out and at your beautiful home. My heart goes out to you. I will miss my friend and treasure the memories. Take care.

From the time I was four years old until I was sixteen, I grew up in a home at 248 Westminster Avenue, in Salt Lake City. Across the street, at 245 Westminster, lived the Farnsworth family. Ken was my best friend. We went to church together, to the "Ward Shows" (movies shown on Friday nights at the LDS Ivins Ward) and were in the same Boy Scout Troup. Ken's father, Ken Sr., took us fishing at their cabin on the Provo River and at Deer Creek Reservoir. I last saw Ken about 8 years ago...

I met both of you at our shop,(Orchid Dynasty) There was something special about Ken. I enjoyed his stories and was always happy to see him. He would always tell me how lucky he was to be with you. Clint and I were fortunate enough to have met him.

Dear Christell,
I'm sorry for your loss. Ken was always a true friend no matter how many years between our visits. We grew up together from elementry school at Whitter. Over the years, whenever I saw him it was as though we had just talked last week. He is a wonderful person whom I can never remember saying anything negative about anyone, he just seemed to look for the positive in all of us. He obviously touched many lives for good. I will miss him, but look foreward to seeing him again.

You are in our heart, thoughts, and prayers. May you find some comfort in knowing you are loved by so many.
My Love, and Deepest Sympathy, Darla

Our hearts and prayers are always with you. Every time you see the birds outside your window, Ken is watching them with you. We love you both.
