    I was quite shocked. He hired me at Orkin, I thought he was a great person to work for, and to know. I feel very lucky to know such a person. He will be missed. Out loss

    Sorry for your loss. Worked in partnership with Ken for 5 years to sell one of the largest national pest control contracts. A unique experience, partnership and team mate.

    My deepest condolences to all of Kens family and friends. I only knew Ken on a professional level, but he was always a very energetic and delightful person. I will be praying for you in this difficult time.

    So sorry and shocked to learn of Ken’s passing. Worked with Ken for many years and found him to be one of “the good ones”. When you worked with Kenny, as I called him, you were working with a friend. I’ll be holding a picture of that big broad smile of his in my head while remembering all the good time spent together. RIP my friend.

    I am sorry for your loss and have the entire family in my prayers. Ken and I knew each other for 20 years through the pest control industry. During that time Ken and I learned together, laughed together and solved many problems over adult beverages. I know Ken will be missed by all that he touched.

  • Aric Schroeder Posted January 13, 2018 8:35 am

    Ken was one of my first mentors in the pest control industry. His accomplishments in sales spoke for themselves. Ken and I shared many good stories and laughs. I’ll remember him fondly. My condolences to Kris and Ken’s family.

  • Darrell Klein Posted January 13, 2018 11:39 am

    My thoughts, prayers and love to you and your family, Janet and Jerry.
