Tributes
"Losing someone like Ken will be a difficult void to fill, as he meant so much to so many for so long. Our thoughts are with you and your family at this difficult time."
"Jennifer and I send our heartfelt sympathies."
"I have so many wonderful memories of ken. We had so much fun together at HHS. Great times in AZA and lots of fun getting in trouble, but not really trouble. Pam my deepest sympathy. I have not seen you since high school I wish I could be there with you today."
"Ken and I had so much fun together at HHS! He really was fearless and the life of the party. His New Yorkish would come out on occasion. But we loved him. I have wonderful memories of being friends with ken. And to Pam, I'm so sorry for your loss. I guess I've not seen you since high school but wish I could be there today."
"So I was one of the San Antonio crew rushed by the fraternity and, as you might have guessed, Ken was one of those leading the gauntlet . Once pledged what impressed me about Ken was that after the "rush talk" ended he also walked the walk. His deep and sincere care and love for the fraternity was palpable, but what was even more evident was his care and concern for the welfare of the fraternity. His burning desire to make and keep AEPi great was non-pareil. He, at times, was the brunt of kidding and joking around, and he always took it graciously, but when you distilled down all the B.S. and mishegas heaped on Ken, you soon came to realize that this is a good man, a kind man, a loving man. Ken was a man of integrity, and you knew he always had your back. My friend, you will be sorely missed, and I wish you God speed in your journey."
"Ken was a great fraternity brother and I will always count him as a friend."
"Ken was a friend of mine in high school. We knew each other fromAZA. He was in Monday, I was in Alder in Houston. I spent several weekends at his house and remember the note he had on his toilet to turn off his alarm clock. My dad and he used to kid each other? they were very much alike., but he was indeed one of a kind. Once we got to UT, we went our separate ways... I?m very very sorry to learn of his passing. The world will be a bit more boring without Ken. Wishing his family only wonderful memories"
"Ken was my fraternity brother and friend. He and I shared the honor of leading AEPi through good times and tougher times. I have no doubt he will soon be leading our brothers who have passed on to the next life. Go with God."
