To the Waste family - I am so sorry for your loss. My family (the Bob & Laurie Larson family) grew up in Mounds View and lived a couple blocks from B & R. We had 5 kids in our family , Eddie Waste was my age and Kenny was my Brother Rob's age. We lost Rob almost 3 years ago to a brain aneurysm at the age of 43 so our family knows just what you are going through. Our prayers are with you- faith is the only language that can get you through this loss. God bless, Jani Larson (Blaser)

I can't believe that I won't see that sweet smiling face rambling through Roberts anymore. He was such a fun guy and any amount of crap he would give me was all fun. Who's going to sneak up and surprize me? Take care-Greg and Liz, stay strong, Ed, the rest of the family-it's been a strange string of events for you all-Hang in there. Peace-Miss Debbie

To the entire Waste family: I am very saddened to hear of your loss. I have known Ken for quite a few years and the one thing that will always stand out for me is the way he had such a warm smile. It seems like just yesterday I ran into Ken and Diane and was having a conversation with them. We were talking about everything including our recent losses. Never in a million years did I think that would be my last conversation with Ken. He was always very pleasant to me and he lit up whenever he talked about the kids/grandkids.



Diane: Even though it seems tough, I know you will be strong through this. You are a remarkable woman and will be guided through this very difficult time.



My thoughts and prayers go out to all of you.

To the entire Waste family. I am so sorry for your loss. I cannot beleive that Ken is gone. It seems like just yesterday I ran into Ken and Diane and we were chatting about all the crazy things in life, including our losses. Never in a million years did I think that would be my last conversation with Ken. I think back to that conversation and how he lit up when he talked about his family, especially the children and grandchildren. Ken had a heart as big as gold and always had and ear to lend when someone needed it.



Diane,

Stay strong. I know it seems hard right now, but you have what it takes. You are a great lady and will get through this.



My thoughts and prayers go out to all of you during this sad, sad time.
