Sue and I were so sorry to hear of your loss. I knew Ken as Bill’s dad, but also had the pleasure of working with him on numerous occasions at N Reactor from 1979 to 1988. Ken was impressive to work with actually probably a little closer to for because he was able to lead large projects with an incredible abundance of operational, engineering and managerial skill. His constant example of professionalism was inspirational and definitely helped contribute to the career development of this then young man. I guess this just proves that through the lives he touched, part of him will definitely be continuing on in this mortal world. I know you, his loving family, will carry on as he would want you to. Please accept our warmest wishes to all of you at this difficult time. Sincerely, Wayne & Sue Z.
KENNY WAS A VERY NICE MAN.HE WILL BE MISSED GREATLY.

I had the privelge of working with Ken at Hanford from 1965 until his retirement. He was a mentor, a leader and overall a wonderful person. Ken liked to get the job done and he’d let you know if he didn’t think you were pulling your weight!!
My deepest sympathies to all the family in what I know to be a terrible loss. We share that with you and hope that in some small way our caring gives you strength to deal with this loss.
