I first met Ken back in the mid to late 60' when I worked at Building Systems, Inc. in Middleton on Airport Road. Ken was always a gentle soul with great manners and was fun to be around. Our paths haven't passed in many years but I will never forget his constant smile and great attitude about life. Rest in Peace my ol friend.
