We knew Ken from many happy times at the cabin in Stoddard. Our deepest sympathy at his passing.

Worked with Ken at Traffic Records for several years in the Chicago Police Department. Always kept things light and enjoyable. We spoke about getting together sometime after retirement, but unfortunately, we never connected. My wife, Maria, also worked with Ken and Tom Quirk for over 13 years at the Statistical Unit in Traffic Records. Sadly, we also lost Tom earlier this year.

On behalf of my wife, Maria (Ramirez) Erickson and myself, we wish to express to all of Ken's family and friends the deepest of condolences in your time of grief.

Ken's favorite saying I will always remember him for, "One for road!"
