Miss you grandpa, thank you for everything you did for us growing up.

Wish could´ve met all the kids, they´ve heard lots of stories about B&G, the dog races, my kind hair, Chiefs gear, Houston Aeros games, etc.

Our son Ben´s middle name is Kenneth after you.

Love you.

Eric

I worked with Ken in both NKC and Tulsa. We have been freinds since 1967. I now work in Springfield, MO. I had a good visit with him by phone just a few weeks ago. He was an asset to the tank business and will be missed by all. May God comfort you in your time of sorrow.
