Ken and I were colleagues at AMRESCO and worked together for several months on a project team. He was a very capable, fair, and kind individual. It was a pleasure to have served with Ken.
Please accept my sympathy.

I had the pleasure of working with Ken prior to his opening his practice in Fort Worth. Ken was a kind hearted and loyal man. He obviously loved his wife, Sarah, and son, Matt. Ken will be missed. His family is in my thoughts and prayers.

Ken and Sarah have made us feel so welcome at St. John's when we recently joined the St. John's family.
We really appreciated the way the Stringer home was opened so our church group could discuss how we felt about The Passion of the Christ after we saw it in the theatre.
Their passion to facilitate gave us a real chance to talk about our feelings and thought of such a power movie.
It was clear that Ken's faith and passion for Christ was there as it was with the whole family.
His hard work at St. John's has made St. John's a great choice for our church home.
He wonderful abilities will be missed, but his spirit lives on in how we love and enjoy our church home.
God Bless you Sarah and Matthew and keep your family through these tough times,

Sarah and Matthew,
Ken was a great friend and support for many people, and though we have not seen each other for a while, I still think fondly of the times we shared at Stones Throw. I am at a loss as to how to fully express my shock at your sudden loss, but hope that the prayers and support of your friends and family will help you in your grief.
