Ken always furthering his education became tax law certified in four states. Formally of Helmetta, NJ, he and Laura moved to Washington in 1996 to raise their family.  Ken was a great man with a big heart who always put others before himself, earning the nick-name Iron Man. He was a loving son, checking on his parents weekly and helping them with everything from appointments to gardening.  He loved gardening, was a wicked chef and made the most amazing meals with the produce he grew.  He loved cars and recently purchased an old truck to rebuild with his son.  Ken enjoyed motorcycles as well and riding his Harley was a favorite past-time next to hiking.  He loved the outdoors and the many hiking trips he and his family went on.  He especially loved his hikes with his faithful companion Montana.
