Truly a sad day when a good person like Ken is taken from us. My condolences go out to Gina, Nicole, and the rest of the family. I worked with Ken for a few years and enjoyed working with him, playing golf, having lunches and travelling together (which would include a beer or two). His friendship was one that I enjoyed and I’m sorry I won’t be able to see it again. We will always remember the good times, including a pseudo birthday surprise that he gave me that showed his sense of humour and friendship.
I was terribly sorry to hear of the sudden loss of Ken. He has a beautiful soul and I’m sure inspired many people. Peace and blessings to his family.
Please accept my deepest sympathies. Ken was a great mentor and coach and as a part of his team I felt he was my brother and I could always count on him. He was a Great Guy.
Thoughts & Prayers are with you all. I had many good conversations with Ken, he had passion for his work.
Sincere condolences.
I’m very sorry to hear of the news. Ken was always a pleasure to work with and will be sorely missed by all. My deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
Gina, Nicole and all of the Gould family
I am so sorry for your loss and am thankful I spoke to him at my brothers memorial service. My families thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
I worked with Ken for many years and I can’t say how much of a great man he was. He always thought of others before himself and always took the time to see how you were doing. I won’t forget how he could put so much energy in a room and when he laughed with his eyes shut. Simple things to remember I gues. My heart and prayers go out to Ken’s family and friends. I’m gonna miss you buddy.
Ken was a colleague of mine in our welding supply industry. We enjoyed some good times over the 20 plus years, my condolences to Michael and the entire Gould family.

When we were kids I envied Kenny’s eyelashes – what girl wouldn’t – thick and dark. I remember one day at the Gould tree fort on 7th line the yellow jacket wasp nest – ooch. The Johnston girls are thinking of you – one and all. Keep your memories of Kenny close to your hearts. Luv … Jennifer on behalf of Lorna, Leanna and Jeanette.
Ken with his buddy , happy times.

My condolences go out to Gina, Nicole, and the rest of the family. I worked with Ken for many years and always appreciated his professionalism and brilliance in all he did for Hobart Brothers. He will be greatly missed.
Thinking of all of you, Leisa Quafisi
From all of us at Western Gasco to the Gould family, our deepest condolences.
So sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Dear Gina, Nicole and Family,
Words can not express the loss of such a great man. He touched the hearts of many, mine included, through his kind and caring ways. Always the one to reach out to “see what’s new”, his caring was genuine and heartfelt. His values, he would not compromise, and he let everyone know this. His dedication to his family, his friends and his work were an inspiration to us all. I will miss the fun times we had, but will cherish the memories till we meet again.
I am sorry that I can not be there to give my condolences in person and say farewell to my dear friend.
My thoughts and prayers have and will continue to be with you in the days to come. Please do not linger too long in sadness, as the one thing Ken wanted was for everyone to be happy and have fun.
Ken was a jovial person , loving and sincere and we will miss you . Gina Nicole and all close family please accept my most sincere condolences . RIP my friend
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all today. Ken was such a good guy, we will miss him terribly. Love and hugs Brian Eleanor Michelle Dan. Xoxo
