Kenny and I went to East Jefferson H.S. together and then we worked at least one summer after H.S. at the same construction company (Max & Associates). He was just an overall great guy to be around. A great athlete, but humble and never a braggart. We had great fun working a tough job in sweltering New Orleans summers. Everyone in the crew had a nickname. His was "Meatball" because he loved the meatball po-boy sold by one of the lunch trucks that came to the jobsites. I bumped into him at Drago's about two years ago and enjoyed catching up. He talked at great length and with deep appreciation about his very successful kids and his grandchildren. Deepest condolences to his family and may he rest in peace. Kevin LaVie

Ken's son Ben is married to my daughter Toni. Every time we got together he was so kind and friendly. He was so proud of his children . For that is all he would talk about. We would usually see him at Drago's where he was always smiling. he was a really neat guy and we will miss him.

Kenny and I are just a few weeks apart in age. We grew up next door to each other and could talk to each other through the chain link fence. Kenny was a very good athlete....I was (how shall we say?) not. He always looked out for me. At school recess, he was usually one of the two team captains who got to choose the people on his team in alternating order. I was near the bottom of the barrel being slow and unable to catch (but otherwise really good), but Kenny ALWAYS picked me for his team and before I was the absolute last one picked. That stuck with me all these years.
