I was so sorry to hear of Ken's passing. I first met Ken 20 years ago through my late husband, Roger Mignot. Ken had a wonderful sense of humor and a kind personality. He and Doranne became good friends very soon and along with their family, helped me deal with Roger's passing. I continued getting together with Ken and Doranne every year and enjoyed their company immensely. Ken was instrumental in starting up the memorial scholarship for Bonner Springs high school students in Roger's name. I've never met a kinder person than I found in Ken. I'm so lucky to have been one of his many friends. May you and Roger have a grand reunion! I will miss you, amigo. Miryam Rumbaut

I was sorry to hear of Ken's passing. They were our next door neighbors for several years when we first came to Bonner. I was an employee of the school district as well so that made him my head boss. This was in the days when a pregnancy was kept quite until the need to acknowledge it in public. However our then six year old son when through the neighborhood telling everyone his mom was having a baby. So much for not telling the school district. The cat was out of the bag. Ken and my husband were good friends and Sandy soon worked for the school district as a custodian. Ken was highly thought of in the district and town. He was a fair boss, treating everyone with respect and friendliness. I appreciated his leadership all the years I worked under him and I know Sandy did as well. We have many fond memories of him. Sandy is gone as well but I offer my condolences to his family.
