Ken was a great person. He was a member of my brothersband in high school The Foggs. Ken was the drummer of
the band. I knew him well, and his family. He died from
a brain tumor shortly after school. He was very courageous. Very sad, another one gone from us to soon.

I remember Ken also Sherry...the Foggs played at the Southside Woman's Club and Grace Chapel Dances...It was guys like Ken and your brother that made those dances so much fun to go too. It is a shame that children now of days (and grandchildren) will never experience that. My brother was in the drummer in a band also during those days...they were "the Odessey". It was so much fun to go to the dances and "pray" that someone asked you to dance!
