His Three Sons

Ken always claimed that he took little pride in any of his personal accomplishments, but felt overwhelmingly proud of his three sons, shown below on July 4,2000. (Left to right: Scott, Darren, Ken, Rick)

He believed that fathers needed to tell their children how much they loved them, especially sons.

"It's easy to be daddy's little princess, and know you're loved. But you've got to tell the boys that so they grow up knowing it's all right to say they love somebody," he said. Though Ken sometimes found it difficult to talk about his emotions, he could and did say, "I love you," and "I'm proud of you."

Happy Father's Day to all the dads! And tell somebody that you love them.
