Dear Ken- thank you for all of the fun and smiles over the years and for the privilege of knowing you. I have so many great memories of concerts, cars, and just hanging out that I will never forget. All of the laughs and your infectious sense of humor will stay with me forever. Your energy is unmatched, and you gave me a true appreciation for positive energy and living in the moment with no regrets. You were truly such an amazing person with the absolute best most unique personality. Your joking and laughter were always so contagious. Thank you for turning me on to house techno- I remember all the times dancing and exercising, and still have all the ones we picked out and listen to them often. I will sincerely miss you. Rest easy my friend, and I can hear you telling me goodbye and “Be cool”.
To Janet Mark and Tiffany- I hope you know how very proud your father was of each of you. He was always quick to brag about how all of you were doing, and how smart all of you are. He was also such a proud Grandpa, and your children were the apple of his eyes. I pray for you all to have comfort in this time.
Uncle Joey, Your children and their families have captured your true essence in the writing of this celebration of your life. You touched so many people’s lives with your smile and sense of humor! Sending love and prayers.
