Ken Frey was one of the good guys. He cared deeply about family and tradition. He believed strongly in what he knew to be good and right. He was kind, honest and thoughtful. His moral character and integrity stood out in all he did...and he always did his best. He loved life and lived it to the fullest. I will always remember our Christmas shopping days, he loved the holidays and always made them special. I´m grateful to have known him. Rest in heavenly peace dear Ken. Sending much love and prayers to Bob and Dave, and Anne and the girls.
