Dear Eunice, and Family,
I really thought a lot of your Dad! He really was a kind and generous man, with a heart of gold. He helped me a lot when it came to the little condo, rearranging the agreement, etc. We had many of talks, and his kindness & generousity, was so obvious each and every time.
His main goal in life was to be happy. And happy he seemed to be. He was a "hero" in my book because he was a very special and unique, caring man. And a very close friend. If everyone was a friend like your Father, this world would very much be a better place.
I will miss him, and I will be praying for you and your family, and to all those that loved him as I did,
Love,
Kathy

I am so sorry to hear of Ken's passing. I knew him at "the bank" and for many years after. He was a significant influence in many lives and will be remembered for his support and kindness. My sincerest condolences to his friends and family.

Sherry, Eunice, and family,
I'm so sorry to hear of Popo's passing. I've known Eunice and Hilda for many years, and Eunice and I worked together back in the 80's. Popo was such a character with a huge heart. He will always be remembered for his humor, kind heart, and generosity.
My heart goes out to each of you during your time of sorrow. I know that he has earned his wings and is soaring high with the angels. We will see each other again in the after life.
With sincere sympathy to you, each of his children, and grandchildren,
Respectfully,
Brenda Layne

I will always remember Ken's smile- it was definitely contagious. I met him at The Boardwalk then realized that we had alot of the same friends. He is loved and respected by many and will definitely be missed. I know that he is with God now.

Dear Sherry - My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Ken was such a dynamic personality, he will be missed by many. When I worked with him at BOVA I had such a hard time figuring out when he was serious and when he was kidding but then he would get that grin of his then I knew he was just pulling my chain. What a character! If I can help you in any way just give me a call............ warmest regards, Marilyn Catlett

Ken, Lourie, and all of the Sledd family,
Sorry to learn of your loss. First met your dad when I served with him on the Community Development Committee of the American Heart Association, State of VA, and then while I was working at NCI with you. He was such a kind man. May your wonderful memories enfold and comfort each of you in God's love.
Sincerely,

Barry and I are grateful to have had Ken in our lives (Barry
58 years). He was a dear friend and mentor to us. Ken's
knowledge, experience and unconditional love were beyond
belief. We will always remember his laughter and stories he
told with a twinkle in his eyes,. Each day was made better
when you talked to Ken. We miss him. Much love and
prayers to all of his family.

"He was a legend", says Mike Carroll. I know how much he meant to Ken, Justin and Andrew. Patrick heard many stories from Justin. I know he is in Heaven looking down on all of his family and friends.

I am so very sorry to hear of your loss. I have known Ken Sledd since I was 5 years old and spent many years at the Sledd's home as a child. I have remained in contact with Eunice and Mamie throughout my adult years and was re-acquainted with Philip again at Verizon. The Sledd family has always been a part of my life, even hosting my wedding reception. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you!
