I used to ask about playing golf several years ago . He said did not want to chase a little white ball, he would rather go fishing. Finally he agreed to give it a try. I have to tell you, after that he became a golf nut. I remember calling him while he was a roof doing some work. He got so excited that he fell of the ladder into a big hole he had dug. That did not stop him and he showed up and limped his way 18 holes. I have lots of stories about him and golf. He will be missed by many who played golf with him. Rest in peace brother. Paul Smith

My deepest condolences to Ken´s family. I am stunned to hear of his passing. I first met Ken at his house with his sister and a mutual friend. Ken made me feel welcome from the hello handshake. By the time I left we had become friends. Ken will be greatly missed.
