Mary,

Dave & I will miss Ken very much.

He was a great friend and neighbor.

He was the kind of guy who would give you the shirt off his back. We will keep you in our prayers. Please call us anytime you need someone to talk to or a shoulder to cry on.

Love, Dave & Leann

Please accept my sincere sympathy. Am thankful that I got to see him at reunion last year. He was the next youngest in age to me of the cousins.
