"My 'friend' Ken was like a second father to me. And literally, due to our age difference, he could have been a second father to me. Ken was the kind of person who always had a joke ready to go. He was always ready to pull a prank on you. He was the kind of person who could lift you up on your worst day. Unfortunately, the world lost Ken about two years ago after he died from an extended battle with cancer. Even to the end, he was still cracking jokes and trying to make you feel better even though he was in no shape to be trying so much. The world is a much less funny place without him and I toast him every time I light up a cigar." - Alex
