My first acquaintance with Kenny was at Treasure Chest in Glendora, CA. I moved to Sacramento in 1986 and utilized the services of Web Specialties and started a working relationship with Ken, his son Robert (Robbie) was very young and played around the shop. This was the beginning of our working relationship. Ken mentored me in the remanufacturing of Goss single wide newspaper presses. In later years Web Specialties proved to be a great resource. I moved to Minnesota and Ken relocated the business to Twin Falls. I went to work for Lee Enterprises and Ken Floyd and Web Specialties engaged in multiple projects. I worked with Robert in Longview WA and Twin Falls doing press upgrades. I maintained my friendship with Ken until his retirement. I think the loss of Robert took the wind out of his sales. My condolences to Cathy and the family.
