I´ve only known Ken a few years, but what a nice gentle person....his discussions were always interesting and his insight was on the money. And his laugh was infectious.....Will miss this man a lot.

I knew Ken for 50 years and over the years we spent a lot of great times together. I was fortunate to speak with Ken the evening that he passed and he mentioned that he was very happy and content at this time in his life. Knowing this gives me great peace. I told him that I loved him and responded in kind. Love you, brother.

I met Ken through his sister, Kim Villard Urbas, and was immediately struck by his soft-spoken demeanor and genuine care for everyone he encountered. Ken's dedication and achievements were truly inspiring, and I admired his hard-working nature and the success he attained throughout his life. He always took the time to listen to me and offered thoughtful encouragement regarding my career. As we say goodbye, I pray that God welcomes you swiftly into eternal life, Ken. Please give my regards to Mom V and Ken Sr. when you see them. My deepest sympathy goes out to Kim, Mark and all that new Ken.

I met Ken when my brother Mark Urbas married Ken´s sister Kim. Yes, Ken has a sister despite that fact she was not mentioned in the obituary. I became very close to Kim and in turn to Ken and found a very educated and successful man. Ken was always most interesting to talk to and get his prospective on any number of situations. What I was most impressed by was the love and caring he showed for his sister, Kim. We meet and come to care about many people along our journey in life, but blood family have connections and memories no one else can share and that journey is only Ken and Kim´s. So sorry for your loss, Kim

My husband and I had the honor to meet Ken through his loving sister Kim. What a wonderful man he was. He shared his beautiful home in Tahoe with us and Kim and her husband Mark for a weekend and I will always remember his graciousness and hospitality. He was so encouraging to me in my ambition to start a small business. He will be missed. Rest in peace Ken.

Ken was my loving brother for 65 years. Even though we had 14 years between us, as I got older we became great friends and shared many wonderful times at our family home in Massillon, at his first home in Cleveland, and later trips to California and Lake Tahoe. We always made plans and time to spend quality time together. I always looked up to him and admired his drive and successes. I will miss him very much and he always knew how much I loved him. As my only sibling, I feel blessed and proud to say he was my brither. Always in my heart-Kim

An obituary for Ken is quite the most impossible task. You did it so perfectly. What a wonderful tribute to not only all the things he did, but the person he was, and his impact on others. Absolutely beautiful.
