He spent many years with his long time love, Madeline and their beloved dogs.
He enjoyed Sci-Fi and Western movies, and football. He played baseball in past years.
Finding new treasures at Antique shops or second hand shops was always fun for him.
At meal time Ken liked to say a heartfelt prayer to thank the Lord for his nourishment and asked to bless those he loved, his friends, and take care of the world.
Ken always had time for a smile and a joke, even in tough times – it was inspirational.
For the past 8 years he developed a close friendship and they shared laughs, talks, worries, good and bad times, learning new things , and confidences as she and he became best friends. He got to have her dogs around and it made him very happy. She will miss him immensely.
He lived life on his own terms and made no excuses for his passions.
For many years Ken faced challenging struggles, but now he is at peace, and share a meal with the Lord and thank him in person.
Ken is loved greatly and will be enormously missed.
