Sad to hear of Ken's passing -- he was such a good man and we are certain the angels in heaven are rejoicing as they receive him. Oh so many years ago, we remember Ken puttering around the house. He was always helpful, kind and generous with his knowledge and his smiles. I know he will be missed by many. Sending love your way, Donna and family.
