I am so sorry to hear that my friend Ken has passed yet I am confident to know that he is now with the Lord he loved and is free from all the physical struggles he suffered for so many years. I counted it a privilege for quite a few years to hold Ken's hand and steady him as we entered the choir loft at First Baptist Atlanta where he was so faithful to serve. I loved singing with him and enjoyed his jokes, sports comments and life experiences. He was one of the good guys and it saddens me to lose him. But I know I will see him again because of what Jesus has done for us. Praise the Lord.
