Darlene and Family - We always enjoyed visiting with you when you came to the beach. Ken and I had such a good conversation in June helping us understand just a small part of your journey. Our prayers for God's comfort and peace for you. Rob & Marcia Wieringa

Darlene and family — So sorry to hear of Ken’s passing. Loved teasing him when I lived across the street from you. Little Ellie is going to be lost without him too. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I have so many good memories of Ken as a friend during our time together as classmates at Unity Christian High School. I loved his wise guy humor, his taste in music, and his enjoyment of cars & motorcycles. With Gary Buys, we had some great misadventures together & I continue to share those stories to this very day. May Ken rest in God's peace, & joy, & love...
