My prayers to Mardi and family.
Ken was quick witted and ably humorous for every occasion. This I can attest and it still evokes a smile.

very sorry to hear of Ken’s passing. I met Ken while working at Deerhurst resort. Ken would come out to improve the cable reception and regardless the weather he was always smiling.
My sincere condolences to Ken’s family. Ken taught me the basics of coax and low voltage cabling at a very young age along with wiring and crimping standards. The jokes never stopped, which made the work easier and faster. RIP Ken 🙁
