Ken was an absolute sweetheart of a guy. He was one of them clients that just made you smile when he walked in. Great guy that will be missed heavily.
I was so sorry to read of Ken’s passing. We knew him when he owned Royal Tire in Whitehall. It did not matter how busy he was, he was always willing to help us out. He was such a nice guy. We were so sad when he was not in business any longer. He was a hard worker. Prayers for his family.
Ken and Barb have been next door neighbors of ours for the forty years we’ve lived in Muskegon. Ken always had a great sense of humor. Barb prayed over fifty years for him to accept Catholicism. Praise God he did and he received apostolic blessing in his final illness. Thank you Jesus!!
