Tributes
"Ken was the epitome of a servant leader. I ALWAYS trusted his advice and ability to accomplish anything we needed him to achieve. He just frankly got the job done, every single time! I think this scripture best describes Ken: Philippians 2:3, "Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in all humility, consider others more highly than yourself." I enjoyed the conversations we had outside of work and frienship we built. Ken inspired me in so many ways to be a better leader and person. His loss will be felt in so many ways in this world. He is the kind of person I hope to be in life. Praying God comforts his family, friends, and all those who mourn the loss of an amazing friend."
