I was sorry to hear of Kenneth’s passing. We worked together many years, but had lost contact following his retirement. I’ll always remember him as a dedicated and effective member of our group. I offer my condolences and prayers to his family and those that mourn his passing.
Our thoughts and prayers are with each of you during this difficult time. We have many fond memories of camping with Carol and Kenneth. May the Angels in heaven comfort you. God Bless
Carol,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. All of us with the TEXAS STATE GAURD AMATEUR RADIO CLUB thought a great deal of you and Kenneth.
I’ve known Kenneth for many years. He was very good friends with my husband Bill Potts. We camped and traveled a lot with him and Carol. He will be missed.
