Not sure what to say?

My heart was so broken to hear that this sweet sweet man has gone and I didnt get a chance to say goodbye! He was more than kind and I will truly miss him! Peace and blessings to his family.

I am sorry to hear that Ken has passed. It was always good to catch up with him at our Class of '61 luncheons. He kept saying he would come to DC for a visit. RIP, Ken.

I apologize for this late memory - I just found out Ken passed away and I did not know he was ill. I worked with and for Ken for years and then knew him as an avid dancer. He was always a kind man understanding and caring for others. I enjoyed working for him - he was a good leader. I also loved that dancing was such an important part of his life - he loved to dance! Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend his funeral but will be thinking of him and his family. I'm so sorry and, again,...

So sorry for your loss of Kenneth. I did not know him personally but, we were at some of the same dances. We did exchange some conversation on occasion. Enjoyed watching him dance. Arlene

Thanks for your service to our country...REST IN PEACE

Our hearts go out to all of Ken's dear family. Special memories of the Perry's as neighbors and friends. You are all in our thoughts and prayers..
Our sympathy and love,

Our prayers and sympathy to the family. Have known Ken for many years and sorry to hear of his passing. I've worked as an election official for over 20 years but met him long before that.

Ken seized the moments to enjoy life. He danced socially often at the VFW 788 in Cedar Rapids on Thursdays and at Wild Hogs in Walford on Sundays. A lot of ladies could count on some dances with this very good dancer. He wanted to give us all a chance to dance. I loved doing swing dancing with him. We will all miss him and his infectious smile.
