February 24, 2022 at 10:11 amArden, Heather and Kendra, I am so very sad to learn of Ken’s passing. He was the nicest person anyone could ever hope to know. I am glad you and Ken stopped by last summer so we could visit. Was just thinking about the trip we all made to Greenfield Village many years ago. And I can still hear his laughter. It just stays with you. Seems like he was always laughing. That’s how I will remember him.

It is deeply saddening to learn of Ken’s passing. He was a unique guy with a rye sense of humor. Our times shared at MSU hockey will always be in my heart and on my mind. Please let me know if I can help you in any way.

Dear Arden and Kendra,
I was very sad when David called me and said that Ken had passed. And another part of me
thought now Ken was peacefully at rest.I remember all the laughs and fun times we had with your family at MSU Hockey games. And the get togethers after the games. I remember one time we went to the Spartan Hall of Fame Cafe. We were in a side room and more people showed up then they thought. So it was very crowded we were almost sitting on each others laps. But with Ken we still had alot of laughs and fun that night .

We were so sorry to hear today that Ken has finally passed . The Spartan Hockey fan family will never be the same without the Candy Man (as our kids called him) and his booming voice at the end/beginning of a play that desperately needed his input. Ken will forever be the “Green-e” in our Go Green, Go White hockey chant. He will be missed. Hugs and warm memories to you and the family.
Love,
Jenn, Gus & the (once-little boys) Cole & Blake

My condolences to you and your family. The month of February has been very hard for me since my Mom, Sister-in-Law and Uncle has passed. I pray for strength through God and that he lays his Blessed Hands on your entire family. Ken was a dedicated employee for Quality Dairy and and he and I had a great employee/Boss relationship. He will be missed in passing, but not in heart or mind.
Sincerely,
Joel Schneider

You both are in our thoughts and we pray that you may find rest and peace. Ken always had such a great attitude when I was working with him on the various house/property sales. He made comments that made me smile and it always brightened my day to see all of you.
Sending our love.

I was saddened today to see in the Lycoming College magazine that Ken passed away in February. He and I were great friends throughout our years at Lycoming, and I, too, well remember his laughter and great sense of humor. Ken and I spent many happy hours playing innumerable hands of double pinochle in the student union (“sub”) while we were undergraduates at Lycoming…if only they offered a minor in card playing!
Sending warm wishes your way.
