I am very sorry for your loss. Ken was a great friend to me during the years that we worked together and I will really miss him.
I met Ken in the early 70's when we both became Food Stamp Consultants.We became friends immediately and remained close over the years.We had some great times throughout our work careers.Had an opportunity to visit him a couple months ago and was so pleased he recognized me.Enjoyed my visit.He was a great guy who loved his children and grandchildren.Will miss him.Will remember all of you in my prayers.
Just heard the news. My condolences to the family.Ken used to officiate me in hi school at LaGrange and we had great times at the river with my Mother and Bill. He was a very good man.
Ken and I were students at MSU and then were co-workers in the early 70's. We made daily trips to the old Mullers cafe for coffee and sometimes lunch. I made regular visits with him at the care center. His love of family and friends was indeed remarkable. May God rest his soul and may his family find peace and consolation in the Lord.
Ken was a true friend and co-worker. I enjoyed our many talks and especially laughs. He will never be forgotten. My sincere sympathy for your great loss.
Ken was our Regional Food Stamp Supervisor and I worked closely with him for many years in a Parish Office. He was a good friend. May God bless and comfort you as you adjust to your life without your father and grandfather.
So sorry for your loss.
