Ken lived a full and happy life. He was an industrial designer for Fedders Corporation. He enjoyed taking care of his home, his garden, and was a talented artist and golfer. Ken was a good family man, friend and neighbor. He was a life-long New York Yankees fan and Green Bay Packers fan and loved to watch golf on the weekends. He had a great sense of humor and a quick wit. He was meticulous in every aspect of his life. He was a true gentleman and an inspiration to many.
