Dear Cloe and Family, So happy my cousin had a good and happy life. Have not seen him since we were young together. Ken's dad (Walter) and my mother (Annette) were sister and brother. Ken and me (Sandy) and my brother Matt, and sister Darlene, lived and were raised on the same street as Ken. We were sad to hear of your loss, you are in our thoughts and prayers. Thank you Cloe for taking good care of Ken.
