Condolences
Sorry to hear about your Grandpa Josh, he was a good man. Perhaps as kids we gave him a hard time, but he took it well and was good to us. I'm sure he'll live on through his family. Take care, -Landen Landen Green
My sympathy is extended to Ken's family on his passing .
A coffee buddy of mine for many years, Ken was a proud American who served his country with distinction in WW 2 and beyond.
Due to illness, we have missed his presence and will now miss fun conversations about our families, the craziness of politics and the tomato garden he felt so much pride in.
Ken was special and those who met him felt his genuine warmth and goodness.
May God bless the soul of this special person.
We will surely miss him. Harry Derderian
