I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Ken. He was one of my vendors and I very much enjoyed working with him. He was always kind and always easy to work with. I am so sorry for your loss.

Sorry to hear of the passing of my dear friend Ken. We worked together many years at Kieffer-Nolde and talked frequently after our retirement. He was always a kind and honest person and respected by many of our clients.
May he rest in Peace. He will be greatly missed.
