I was very sadden by the news of one of my dearest friends. Our friendship started with Ken walking over to me, and telling me the corniest of jokes; that was in 95. We hung out a lot, and shared many good memories; you couldn’t ask for a better friend; he was always there whenever I had a problem. I regret not being able to say goodbye properly, but with my mom in hospice, it could not be avoided. I will be forever grateful and miss you my friend. God bless.
