ken will be missed by so many
i as a person got to know him and cathy as they took the time out of their days to work on my home after hurricane katrina
damaged it. just goes to show how very loving people they both are.
This is just 2 of the many that came from mo.these 2 very important people will never be forgot by me and my family for all they done for me.
Ken was a very kind and loving person. I know he is with the lord now.

I kept hearing the name on the news -- but couldn't believe it --not the same Ken Yost I went to high school with, but alas, it was. I am so, so sorry. My sincere sympathies to the whole family and all those whose lives he touched.

Dear Kathy,
It has been years since we spoke but I wanted you to know, at this time of your sorrow, that our family is with you in prayers and sorrow. The loss of a family member, especially your husband, is never easy. You two were a wonderful couple and an exemplary set of parents. I am just sorry we had no chance to really get to know each other better. With deepest sympathy and respect, I send you this note of condolence.

Be Still
Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.
Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.
If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

Ken
was a man who touched
the world around him.
He was so much, to so many
a son, a brother, a husband, a father, a co-worker,& a friend.
The pain of his loss
will lessen with time
but will always be felt
as we remember him
Remembering his face
the good times &
the funny things he did and said
We would tell him once more
We love him
but even then
He knew anyway.
Take comfort in the man he was
Take comfort in who you are
because of the man he was.
Good Bye Ken
and Thanks....

Ken, I will miss you dearly, You taught me Honor....You taught me Integrity...You taught me that when someone didn't like the answer we gave them to smile and stand your ground. Even if they Stooped to a lower level. You taught me to hold my head high, even when I made mistakes, and that everything was Fixable. You taught me Honesty. You taught me Compassion, even when I felt like they didn't earn it. Ken, you taught me SOOOO much. I will miss you, More than you know... My friend, My Boss, My mentor, You were like a father to me....I will never forget you...
