My previous message should have been addressed to Kevin and Barb. You are both heavily on my mind today. I wish I could be there today to express my sympathies in person. I am confident that you will have many loving arms surrounding you.

Ken was the best neighbor I have had since I moved into this neighborhood 19 years ago. He was helpful, friendly, and he loved to talk about life. I have always appreciated his friendship and he will be missed by my family.
