• My heartfelt sympathy goes out to your family at this most difficult time. Please be assured that God will help you cope with the heavy weight of your loss. “Blessed be Almighty God who daily carries the load for us.” Psalms 68:19

Very happy person was a Joy to fly with. Now get your Rose Garden ready in Heaven

I was one of the people Ken visited through the volunteer program and I always enjoyed his visits. I will miss his smile and his sense of humor.
Rest in peace.

Kenny and I went to work for PSA about the same time he came in 1959 and I came in 1960. We flew the old Air Force contract C-47 together and many times on the Lockheed Electra. I have many fond memories of Kenny in the old days. Rest in Peace and farewell

I bought my home from ken, here in Ramona. ken and his wife were very nice and when I got to see the house, Ken told me a bit about himself. He will be deeply missed.
