Judy & family...my heart aches for all of you. Ken was such a genuine, kind, and good man. He is out of pain and at peace, however, and we couldn't wish anything better for him.
I will miss the service as I'm in Colorado at my son's until next week. Please know I'll be sending special thoughts your way.

Heaven has received a guardian angel who I know will watch over all of us. Kenny is one of the best I take comfort in knowing he's on guard.
