I have known Ken most of my life. He and JoAnn were my parents dear friends. He was a gentle man and his laughter I will always remember. I remember going to there house and always excited to see Karla and Kevin. We would play outside all day long. They had the biggest house I have ever seen as a child. They always made me feel like part of there family. I loved him dearly and he will be missed by so many.
