High Tide, Low Tide, Ebb Tide . . . Ken had a lot of houses in Carmel . . . We shared a window washer named Big Al, who is now washing windows for God and at Ken's little cookie shop in heaven . . .

I just found out about "Ken Rawlings"... I worked for Otis Spunmeyer Inc. in 1994 as an HR Clerk and I recall the days of him comining into the office asking the the two Steve's and other VP's what time are we playing ball in the company Gym.

I most say that Ken was a very giving man...he would allow empoyees to take the airplane tours and spend the weekend at his Carmel property. His...

I just found out about Kenneth and want to send my condolences to the family. I will never forget him sending my husband and I to one of his ocean front properties called High Tide. When I was there I felt like I was in heaven. I was just one of his muffin makers and couldn't believe he allowed us to stay in his beautiful house by the sea. It was one of my most memorable trips ever!

Ken was one of a kind in the best way, a very kind and caring man who lived and loved life to the fullest and never forgot anyone. May he truly rest in peace. Condolences to his family.

I was just thinking about Bebe today, I called my friend Chris O Connor to ask how he was doing, and Chris
told me the sad news of his passing. It made me so sad. I send all my love to his beautiful four daughters
who he was just crazy about. I met Bebe when he called me to cater a dinner party in his beautiful new home on seaview. We became instant friends. He also became my favorite client of all time. Bebe Rawlings was an absolute giant of a man, in every way. He was so humble,...
