    Didn’t know Ken was nearly that old, but still he was way too young to leave us. Seemed like a great guy and was a passionate fan of CE. He will be missed in a big way.

    Now I have no one to talk about CE for hours on end . Ken was a beauty . Shy on the mike and in public , but in private , he could talk ! He was the first CE I met and he was my friend . I can still feel his presence .
