Dear Pat, Cindy, Michael and Nancy and all of your family.
Sincere sympathy on the passing of your dear Dad. He was a great guy to talk with. He had many fond memories of growing up on our road and walking to school by what is our farm now and picking apples off the tree in the yard to eat on his walk to school and on his way back home. Ken will be missed by many. Treasure all your wonderful memories of him. Love and hugs and prayers from your Cousins
