I met Ken working at Acosta two years ago. Such a great guy and a hard worker. I always liked working with him. The news was just posted on the Acosta Web site.
So sorry for your sudden loss.

I was deeply shocked and sadden at this news. Ken`s daughter Michelle and my son Joey went to Blessed Sacrament Grade School together. It seems like just yesterday we were attending Home and School meetings together. When my wife and I were dropping our son Joey off at U W Whitewater , Ken and Barb were dropping off Michelle. Ken and I even made it through jury duty once a few years ago. Just a few weeks ago Ken and Barb were in the pew in front of me at church.
The circle of life ended too soon for Ken, but you have to trust that God has a plan and reason for what happens.

To all of Ken`s family, please accept my deep sympathy.

Ken and I served together in Vietnam in 1972. He helped train me when I first arrived in Danang. I most remember Ken for his smile. He always seemed to be happy no matter the circumstances. He was just great to be around. On behalf of all his Big Look Spook brothers, please accept our deepest condolences. We will all miss our brother Ken.

My deepest sympathy to Barb and the family of Ken.
Ski was one of my closest buddies while in the Navy as we served in Danang, VN; the Philippines and at Ft. George Meade/NSA, MD.
He worked hard and played hard, as we all did. RIP my Bro!!
