I recall Ken's sincere inquiries about my sister Carolyn as well as his gratitude for his Brigham City origins. We miss the annual gift of Brigham City peaches. As one of his former partners at Bryner Clinic he was a remarkable friend and excellent physician. All the best to his family always!

Wonderful, kind physician to all who knew him! My doc for 50 years.

It was my privilege to be one of his Bryner Clinic colleagues beginning in 1976. Members of our family were among many to be recipients of his gifts of Brigham City peaches. Our sincere condolences to his dear Elinor and their posterity. Thank you Ken for all the things you accomplished and for who you will always be!

Kenneths impact is immense. A great, humble man.
