Dear Carol and Family,
Ken, siblings and parents were a very close part of our lives growing up. I remember fondly of our two families getting together. He was always a kind and gentle man and we were only a few months apart in age. Our parents talked often about our Mom's being pregnant at the same time and sharing with each other their joy. He will be missed by all, but know he is back with Louis and Edi and someday we will all be together again. Our prayers and love to all of you.
