Not sure what to say?

Forever, I will MORN you my only Grandfather! I will LOVE you forever more my knight! You have lived a full life and have meet many people all over this planet! I thank you good soul! You are loved by many! We ALL MISS YOU FOREVER MORE!

Debbie, Barbara, kids, and all: I am so saddened to hear this. I enjoyed Ken's intellect in our discussions so long ago. If there is any comfort I can offer, it is yours. In spite of years of separation, my love and affection continues for all of you.

Ken was my husbands brother. I often regret that we didn't love closer. He was a awesome son, brother, husband and father and grandfather. I know he will be missed by many.

I was a student of Ken Tye's while in the master's program at UCLA in 1976. I thought he was brilliant. I am pleased to see he had a good long life.

It truly was a pleasure to have had the opportunity to have worked with you at Chapman. Much was accomplished and the institution became stronger with those that wanted to build the University into a positive force within the academic community.
