I thank the Lord for the wonderful, fulfilling life that Ken had. I remember Ken and Dorothy way back in the 1960's when Harvey and I moved to Arlington with our children. They were one of the first from Grace Lutheran to call on us.

Dorothy, this is Ruth Brown, a long ago friend from Grace Lutheran. Harvey and I moved to Arlington in 1964 and you and Ken were probably the first people from Grace to visit us. We became friends and my daughter, Elise, took sewing lessons from someone at your store. Now Harvey and Elise are both in heaven along with Ken. If you can, give me a call at 817-274-8600. May God grant you and your family His wonderful PEACE.
