Although many years have passed since Ken and I worked together in the USSS, I've never forgotten our friendship, or his dedication to the agency. I offer my sincerest sympathy to Ken's family on his passing.

Ken: I'll miss your cheerful disposition and positive nature. Even after 30 years we took up talking as if it were only yesterday. It has only been two months and I can still hear your voice resonating in my ear. May God richly Bless you on this new adventure and Comfort your family in this trying time. John B.

Oh Ken, how I will miss you in the e-mail! The fondest memories are the ones in childhood, how ken was always clowning around keeping us laughing tears! He made the dreary sky blue with his bubbling personality. There was never a dull moment with him. Even though we debated a little over the politics, we were always respectful of one another. He was dearly loved and so will be his memories. Love you Ken, the goodbye is not forever! -

To all of Ken's family (Florida & Virginia),
I am still shocked by Uncle Ken's passing. Ken was the true definition of a "good man". I have been proud just to be his nephew and will never forget him. All of you are in my thoughts and prayers. We have lost so many in my father's family now, and I only pray that we can keep tighter relationships in the future.

Much Love,
Jeff, Karen, Amanda, & Elizabeth Baker

I was surprised and sorry to here of Ken's passing. I first met Ken in the early 1970's in the USSS. He was a man I enjoyed being around. My thoughts and well wishes go to all of Ken's family members.

Melanie,

My thoughts and prayers are with you. I'll never think of Kenny without thinking of his love for music and dancing. He was great at both and won many dance contests with your Mom years and years ago. He was truly a good man, a knowledgeable man, and an absolute pleasure to engage in conversation with. I know he will be sorely missed by many, especially you.

All my love,
Gail Shiver

My sincere sympathy goes to the Baker family at this difficult time. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to know Ken and always enjoyed his friendship. Ken always had a kind word and was very devoted to his career and family. His many contributions will not be forgotten.
