MY CONDOLENCES TO KEN'S FAMILY. I WAS TRULY SADDENED TO READ OF HIS PASSING. I WAS BLESSED TO GROW UP IN GROVELAND AND HAVE SOMEONE LIKE KEN AS A MENTOR IN LEARNING TO PLAY ANY KIND OF BALL. KEN ALWAYS WATCHED OUT FOR US YOUNGER BOYS, THAT WAS JUST HIS NATURE AND WAS A PRECURSER TO THE MAN HE WOULD BECOME. LOVE AND SUPPORT ONE ANOTHER IN THIS TIME OF GRIEF. FOCUS ON THE GOOD KEN ACHIEVED AND KNOW THE 'LORD' IS PLEASED AS HE HAS WELCOMED KEN HOME.

Ken will be missed dearly. He was such a delight to be around and treated everyone with kindness. We enjoyed the memories of Grandpa Ken attending our baseball games. The next game we play is in honor of you Grandpa. May you rest in peace. We love you Ken♡
