We were friends for other reasons besides 914's. He obviously made beer. He was a total 60's music genius. Loved karaoke. We teased each other mercilously whenever his Orioles would play my Twins. He was a great guy.
We would play a game where I would post some obscure song lyrics on Facebook and he would post the next line. He was one of my favorite people in the world.
I have tears in my eyes as I write this. RIP Ken...

...some might be critical or negative about FB and/or social media; and others could/might appreciate friendships made utilizing them.

We interacted thru Facebook because of the 914 community... then shared other common interests.

I'll miss Ken's posts and thoughts. One of the nice guys...rest in peace friend.

Hey all, his family wishes the cause of his death to remain private. I've edited the posts that had his cause of death.

Ken is an awesome guy.
He was hanging out with me eating chili in my kitchen the day before my first son was born. We used to joke that the gas was what sent Erin into labor.

When he found out I was expecting another kid, he asked when the chili would be ready.

I was floored when I found out he had passed. Still am.

You are going to be missed Ken.

I am stunned. Met Ken a few times mostly at Carlisle and Lattimore VW events.
Ken, I will miss your sense of humor.
Rest in Peace.

Very sorry for the family loss. I've met several Kens over the years at events. Will someone post a photo or description of Kens location and his car?
