Dad,
Losing you so soon has left a space in my life that nothing can fill. I miss you more than I can say, and I’m still trying to make sense of a world without you in it.
Thank you for every moment, every lesson, every bit of love you gave so freely. I’ll carry you with me in everything I do, and I hope you knew how deeply you were loved. I wish we had more time, but I’m grateful for every second we did have. Rest peacefully,
Your daughter,
Corinna

In sorting through memories in my thoughts, I find some good ones of you, Ken. Will miss so many things about you especially the kindness and that lovely smile.
Sending strength and best wishes to your friends & family at this difficult time. The fond memories are forever embedded on our hearts. Thank you for those.

Ken it was a privilege working with you for eleven years at Home Depot . You were a kind hearted soul to all your workmates. From our conversations I know that Bonnie and your family were the light of your life. I will always remember how much you loved going home to your home in Youbou and enjoying a shot of cold tequila by the wood stove in winter
Rest in peace Ken

Ken: We had our good times working together at Xerox, and the many parties and kick offs we attended. I will always remember Friday night beers, after a hard weeks work, glad to see the end of a busy week, and not looking forward to doing the same all over again the following week. Sorry we lost touch after I retired, but know I thought of you, and hoped you and Bonnie were doing well. Rest now my friend, it was a pleasure to have known you.

I knew Ken when we were teenagers when working at McDonalds. Ken was very much a gentleman. He was very kind and considerate. We dated briefly and remained friends. He let me know when he met Bonnie who became the love of his life. I knew him to be dedicated, loyal, loving, charismatic, handsome and true to himself and others. I remember how much I respected him for his devotion to his brother in care. Rest in peace Ken ❤️

My heart goes out to you. I am sure he would have wanted to be with his family much longer than he could. I wish he could have stayed longer for all of you. I have very special memories of him and he will always have a place in my heart ❤️

A gal just couldn’t be blessed with a better & more loved brother-in-law than you have always been my “Bro” Kenny. I am so incredibly grateful for you & the lifetime of truly treasured memories shared together. You are so loved & we all miss you so much.
Love your “Sis”

I don’t know where to start. So many memories! The first time I met him was in a Disco. He opened the door and immediately search for the blue eyed blonde who was to become his wife. The Parties!! The Games! The Fun! I can’t believe that he’s gone either.
To Bonnie, my arms encircle you and the family with the strength all will need.
