Ken’s bright light has dimmed here on earth but is shining brighter now in the loving arms of his Mom and Dad in heaven. His greatest joy was spending time with his family. He had an amazing sense of humor and was always quick with a joke. Ken worked at BAWAC for over 40 years and considered it his second home. He was an avid sports fans and loved watching the Reds, UK Basketball and Bengals. He enjoyed listening to music, dancing, playing UNO and watching MASH reruns. His loving spirit and gentle heart will be greatly missed.
