    So sorry to hear of Ken’s passing! I’ll always remember the fun that we had getting together for bingo. He was a thoughtful caring person. I hope all the good memories of years gone by can comfort you and help the family get through this sad time.

    So sorry to learn of Ken’s death by way of our Wilson High School e-mail updates. He was quite a hero serving in Vietnam. I learned he lived in Picture Rocks which is a town near my husband’s hometown of Lopez, and a beautiful area.

    So sorry to hear of the passing of our cousin Kenny. RIP Kenny. Remembering all the good and fun times we had at Aunt Dot and Uncle Stewards picnics at the grove when we were growing up. The Christmas visits and the sleepovers Barb had with Doris. Many good times.
