I'm so sad to hear about the passing of Kenny! We knew each other in high school and for a while afterwards! I loved you dear friend! The Worden's, Ken Sr., Florence, Donna and Kimmy were very kind to me, and treated me like family! I'm sending prayers and condolences for your grieving family! May you rest now Kenny!

We will miss you my friend.
50 years of friendship gone by in the blink of an eye. Seems like just last month we were driving in your mother's car over thrill hill and laughing like teenagers.
May God watch over your family and bring them comfort in the days ahead.
Rest in peace, Ken.

Ken was a student of mine many years ago at Jamesburg High School, and over the last few years, we hired him to do several painting and paperhanging jobs at our home. We'll never forget his big, booming voice and wonderful sense of humor. We are shocked and deeply saddened to learn of his passing and extend our deepest sympathy and condolences to Ken's family and friends at this sad and difficult time.
