He was a caring person, always interacting with the girls in his quirky way, making us laugh when he talked in Thai. His generosity to us will always warm my heart. He will be missed.

Ken and I have been best friends since we were at the tail end of our ninth grade two mile run. Ken had a great sense of humor and and was always wiling to help others. I will miss him.
