miss you dad
I will always remember the help and hospitality Ken and Marci extended to me and my family in the fall of 2005 when we arrived in Purcellville, VA to get our oldest son, and first to leave the nest, established at Patrick Henry College. I was first introduced to Ken through my father, one of Ken’s close friends, Greg Evans, while working at Hughes Aircraft in the mid 90’s. Ken and Marci wined and dined us in 2005 and made certain we knew they were available to assist in any way possible. That was an enormous comfort being so far from Colorado. It was reassuring to know good friends were close by if needed for our college student. That was just the kind of generosity and willingness Ken showed so often. I am also very grateful for the genuine friendship my father and Ken enjoyed over so many years.

After so many years of knowing Ken, it's difficult to imaging he's not just a phone call away. For Greg, after being part of the Evans-Daniel team at Hughes/Ratheon, those 2 accomplished what few others even dared try. We hadn't seen Ken and Marci since the summer of 2009...out to dinner in Leesburg.
No words can say how we will miss KD. Our heartfelt sympathy to Marci, Kenny Jr., his wife and boys. Ken Daniel loved life, good wine, good friends and his boys. God bless you with His comfort. Greg & Paige Evans
You never know which moment will be the last. Brenda and I spent Saturday, January 28 at our house in Oldsmar, FL with Ken and Marci. We enjoyed good food and fine wine! Kenneth especially enjoyed sitting on our screened back porch, it being warm and pleasant because that's the way Florida is supposed to be!
We then met them at the Florida State Fair on Valentine's day. We walked all over the place. Got a bang out of the pigs races and mellowed out on some good country music and a "Blues Brothers" show.
Finally we met them at Ruskin on Tuesday Feburary 21. We enjoyed lunch at Popi's and a tour of Sun City. We got to see where Ken and Marci were staying at the Hawaiian Isles RV Resort. The last thing we did was to buy some very good and very economical frozen steaks at the Apollo meat market.
Kenneth left me a message Tuesday night wanting to make sure we had gotten home o. k. I had left the cell phone in the car so I didn't get the message until Thursday and I tried to call Ken Thursday evening.
Ken had already moved on in the wee hours of Thursday morning....
I still have the message. Marci, we wish you God's blessings.
Ken was a one of a kind neighbor. He and Marcy were the best dog sitters ever! Jo Jo can already tell there is something going on. It is a huge loss to Jacob Ct that we won't have Ken around. He always had a tool for me and a contractor that could beat any estimate that I could get. He was always proud of getting the best price he could find. I used to say it was because he was retired and had the time and I didn't. We are all going to miss him especially Jo Jo! Rest in Peace and may the Lord protect Marcy in her time of sorrow.
