My husband and I are already missing Ken. We met him a little over 40 years ago. He loved volksmarsching. We went on a lot of walks with him, both local and out of town. We are going to miss our Friday lunches at Gus and George’s.
Farewell good friend. Hope to see you again on the other side.
Charley and Lynn
I enjoyed our hikes and our dinners at the Brass Bell, and will miss our phone chats and texts. I will fondly remember our twenty-five year friendship.
May the love of God surround you and your family during this difficult time,
May you come to know that the love of God is with you always,
May your memories of Kenneth Eberhart, give you peace, comfort and strength…
Rest now in the arms of our Lord your mission on earth is complete.
I thank you for your service to our Country and my Freedom. You will not be forgotten.
My thoughts
and prayers to the family of ….
