To Judy and family I extend my deepest sympathy for the loss of Ken. I will always remember Ken as a kind and caring gentleman. P May your beautiful memories of Ken help you through this difficult time . May his memory be eternal. Pauline

Ken was not only a banker but for a few years was part of the management team of Wright Griffin Davis CPAs. During one tax season while we all slaved 18 hours a day during the winter months, Ken took his vacation early in April.

I have known Ken & Judi for many many years. I met Ken in the Jaycees and he became one of my best friends. He was a GREAT GUY and community leader in numerous organizations. We will all miss him. dearly. May God bless Judi and his family. Lou Belcher
