Kenny was always interesting to converse with. I met him back in 7th grade when I myself moved to Glen Ridge. From the Classes together, Football games, to the unforgettable Baseball seasons, to reunions. Always just a delightful human being. You will be missed by many Ken.❤️ RIP
No words can express the loss the family and we feel. Ken was our brother, friend, confidant, and the one you could always count on. Creator of the 12 historic points of Shepherdstown pinto crawl, we shared so many memories in college. We shared battlefields across the globe in Bosnia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Korea, Haiti, and Panama. Ken will be sorely missed by all that knew him. Till we meet again my brother and comfort to his family Rick Bloss
