Not sure what to say?

Wow so hard to believe. A great man, father, husband, and friend to many.I had not seen Kenneth in several years as we kind of lost touch as we went different directions. Always a great person to talk to when I was a freshman and he was a Senior at Murrsy State. Remember making several trips to Lexington when Sterling and Robbie were little guys. Where has the time went. Prayers to our Heavenly Father for his family. May Kenneth rest in peace.

A great attorney and a wonderful man was lost. All friends and colleagues will mourn ken's death and will miss his infectious smile and his legalese thinking. We will all miss you my friend.

In addition to his unparalleled excellence in a Court of law, Ken was one of the finest people imaginable! He will be sorely missed. Sally, you and the family are in Mike's and my thoughts and prayers during this sad, sad time!

Dear family of Kenneth,
I first met Ken in 1975 when he worked in Commonwealth Attorney's office and as Circuit Clerk was associated with him until my retirement in 2001. He was a "True Gentleman" to all my deputies and was so kind to them. Never in a bad mood but always so cheerful when he came to the office. I know he will be dearly missed by all the court personnel and so many others.
May God Bless the family and give you a peace and understanding.
With My Love and Prayers,...

Ken has been a friend and mentor for many years. I first met Ken when he let me sit through a murder trial when I was a 3rd year law student. We kept in touch and i came to know Ken as a true gentleman and a great attorney. Ken is sadly missed by his friends and colleagues.

No greater compliment can be given to an attorney on the other side than he is a good guy who you can trust. Ken was that and he will be missed.

Sally,
Ken will be missed. He was a giant with a lovely spirit. God bless you and the family. Diane Minnifield
