    Ken was a dedicated and stand out member of our department. He served his duty to the community with pride. It was a privilege to have worked with Kenney for many years under my command in the police department and the Hook and Ladder Fire Company. Although in failing health recently, Ken always had a smile and warm greeting when we met. Our hearts go out to Deb, children and family at this time of loss. May God have Ken's soul as he now rests in peace.
