A Most Tragic Day for The Creek and All Who Visit

[Lincoln Myers]

So sorry to hear this. I always appreciated what Ken had to say in his posts here at The Creek, and back at The Pond. He will be missed. I didn't know him personally, but it sure looked like he always knew how to have fun in his shop and with his family and friends. A great guy.

I just saw this, wow, I am at a loss. He was quite a fighter. He'll be missed deeply at SMC.

[Floyd Cox]

My condolences to Ken's family.

[Shiraz Balolia]

Very sad news, indeed. May his soul rest in peace.
He was a good man and a very fair moderator. He will be missed by many.

[Al Willits]

Don't think there's enough good people in this world, and I think we lost one of them, always seemed like the kinda guy you'd want for a neighbor/friend.

God speed Ken.

As Keith alluded to, Ken was a veteran of combat in Korea. Few know and he didn't say much about it, but he was the recipient of a Siver Star awarded for valor while he was a young enlisted man.

Bless you Ken, rest in peace.

[Brent Smith]

I'm very sorry to hear of Ken's passing. I never met him in person, but did correspond via PM with him a number of times. As far as I'm concerned, he set the standard for forum moderation!

My condolences to his family.

[Kelly C. Hanna]

I am extremely sad to hear this. Ken you will be sorely missed. Our sincere condolences go out to the family.

[Carl Eyman]

We'll miss him as we know you will, but we've both been lucky to know him.

[Chris Alexander]

My sympathies to Ken and his family for their loss, never met him but understand by the multiple quotes that he will be dearly missed. May he be in a better place and away from suffering. God bless. Chris Alexander Custom Millworks.

I just heard the news. Ken was a good friend and a great man. When I think of Ken I think of him standing in my shop at the lathe patiently teaching my daughter to turn. I think of him patiently teaching everyone that wanted to learn anything about wood working. He was a great man. One that will be sorely missed by everyone that he touched. His gruff exterior was only a mask for a truly loving and kind man that only a few ever saw. I remember thinking when the Pond closed and Keith started this place that having Ken as a moderator was like the fox guarding the chickens but there was no one better to keep us in line than Ken.

It was a pleasure to know him. He was a man of great integrity and passion. I will miss him very much. I will never stand at the lathe without thinking of him. Rest in peace Grandpa. Rest in peace.
