I was so sorry to hear of Ken's passing...That being said, I have so many fond memories of Ken. We shared 12 years of school together with many many memories! I am sure he will be missed by all! Prayers for his loving family. Patsy Jourdan
I loved this man. He was a good husband and father. He was well respected by all. There are so many wonderful things I could say about Ken. I spent a lot of time at his home and he was like my second dad at times.
2 memories that I always think about are:
- Ken always took 15 minute “power” naps everyday after work. I never understood how 15 minutes mattered that much, but to him, absolutely. Just don’t be loud!
- Next, Ken always had on Friday nights a half/whole gallon of ice cream with what ever toppings he could find in pantry/kitchen so he could watch his reruns of Andy Griffith. He loved that show!
You will be missed by all and hope heaven is just like you thought it would be.
Respectfully,
Shannon “Shadetree” Rodden
