Read MoreSo sorry to hear about Ken's passing. He was my very first principal and I enjoyed his sense of humor and how down to earth he was. I just came upon his obituary and I want to let his family know how fond I was of him and how I thought he was a great principal. This was at St. Philip the Apostle from 1987 to 1990. My thoughts and prayers are with Ken and his family.

We were very saddened to learn of Ken's passing and pray that God be with you all through this difficult time. So many memories came to mind of our childhood together. Living across the street afforded our family opportune times for playing together. Ken will be dearly missed by us all. God bless.

All, while we mourn Kens passing, let us celebrate his life as a loving husband and father. Let us also remember him as a great educator who helped his students realize their dreams though a great education.
Those of us family members who share memories of the times as kids at Twin Lakes- fishing swimming and baseball are all things to be cherished. We did them together. The next time I talk to Ken it will be at Robs Fish and Tackle.... getting ready to have some fun
