Sorry to hear about Kenneth’s passing, always fun to be around. Miss riding motorcycles with him. RIP Kenneth. The Road Warrior
So sorry to hear of Ken’s passing. We met years back when I was in the powersports and then the RV industry. I always looked forward to hearing about his travel adventures.
Kenneth was such a fun guy and had a good time wherever he went regardless of who he was around. What I remember most was his laugh and the goofy way he danced….like he was fishing?! My condolences to his entire family.
I met Kenneth through my daughter Leigh, who is married to his son David. I didn’t see him very often, but when I did, he was very nice and friendly. I know he will be missed by all who knew him, especially his family. My prayers are with his family for peace and comfort trough this time. RIP Kenneth, now and forever.
The absolute BEST father in law a girl could have ever wished for. He was such an amazing man with a great sense of humor and empathy towards anyone who had the pleasure of knowing him. You are missed beyond words…
