His children remember fondly bonding with their dad singing songs at home or at their family church.

Ken looked forward to carrying on the same traditions he made with his own children with his grandchildren. Ken is also survived by his nephew, Douglas T. Lee, great nephew Allen J.

When Ken was not spending time with his family, he could be found as the Tenor soloist for Margate Community Church or working at the Twisted Dune Golf Course chatting with local golfers. Ken’s main career was working in the Casinos dealing cards at the poker tables for (he worked at all of them lol).
