Our thoughts and prayers are with you all! Watching him at the boys baseball/basketball games was by far one of the best parts! I loved when he would give Jakeb “tips” because you could always see how much he loved the game and the kids! Jakeb made the comment last night that his favorite memory was a joke he told him and Bryson while trick or treating. He was a good man! We are so sorry for your loss!

Mr. Ken/Grandpaw will be missed by so many people, including our family. We were fortunate to know you through our friendship with Kristen, Bryson, and Carter. Our family will miss spending time with you at the ball fields and watching you get worked up over the ball game. You always knew when to push the boys if they were sluggish or when to crack a joke because the boys were being too hard on themselves. Greg will especially miss your interactions with the umps!

Rest pain free, you will forever be in our memories and we will be sending up many prayers for the loved ones that you leave behind.
