Lahona and Kevin-I’m so sorry to hear of Ken’s passing. I have such wonderful memories from my childhood, of my mom, Judy Busten, working for Ken at Metro. Along with seeing you all at the hockey games. Kevin, you shot the puck for me one night, because I had the lucky number in the program. Your dad and my mom asked you to do it because I was little, and you won me a pair of earrings. Such a wonderful memory. Prayers for you at this difficult time
