I will truly miss my chats with Ken . His voice was full of love for his family. How proud he was when he decided to be the chauffeur driver(in a rented limousine ) for Melissa’s wedding. He even showed me the limousine drivers outfit.! Your legacy will leave on in your children and grandchildren. Rest in peace Ken. - Posted by: Leanne Moneo (Friend / dental hygienist) on: Mar 01, 2026
