Dear Kim and All of the Fanta Family,

My dearest association with Ken was during our trip to Israel, a highlight of his life, I know. He loved every minute of it. He had a positive attitude toward all aspects of life's ups and downs. May you have many fond memories of times you have shared. We also shared many times at Union Church. My sincere sympathy is with all of you. Dorothy Stephan
