If Ken went to John Burroughs High in Burbank, then he was my best friend in Jr High and friends in High School. He was a great guy back then. Love Jim Griggs 951-271-6858

Ken,

I´m deeply saddened to hear of your passing. You were more than a colleague to me. You were a friend.

I will never forget the first day we met :) You read me the riot act for a misstep, and then came back later that same day to apologize. That moment told me everything about who you were: direct, honest and strong, but also humble, fair, and willing to own your actions.

Your laugh was so full and genuine that it lifted the whole room. That sound stays with me, and so will the lessons you gave me.

Thank you for the guidance, the honesty, and the example you set. I will miss you.

See you on the other side.

Rick H.
