    Ken passed away last night, and This video was made to remember Ken and not let his name parish, this happened way to soon, and I really hope the Family & Friends are doing the best they can possibly be at this time.

    It's so sad . Watching the show there were three things that struck me about him. He had a cat that he loved. He carried his mother's ashes with him. And he spoke about wanting to leave a nest egg for his son. Such a sweet, humble man. Rest in peace.

    Every time I watch a repeat with Ken in it, my heart hurts a bit. He seemed like such a nice, genuine guy who really liked helping people. I hate that he suffered so many physical pains from his emotional scars. From one first responder to another, RIP brother.

    This video came up as a recommendation for me. I didn't understand why, and I didn't understand why I was coming here....but I do now. I haven't watched the show, I wasn't familiar with Ken, but after seeing that warm smile on his face, and this beautiful and loving tribute, I know how loving...and loved he was. My sincere condolences to family, friends and ALL who were touched by his life. I'm so sorry for your pain. And, that song playing in the background made it even more beautiful. Ty.

    This is sad, heartbreaking news. Please accept my condolences from North Carolina, United States of America, and extend my heartfelt condolences and sympathies to the rest of his valued family and friends. You all seemed to be a big family at Jamie Davis Towing, so I know this has affected you guys deeply and for that I am so sorry. Please be careful doing your jobs, you all have a dangerous job. He may not hav passed while working out on the road but the stress of the job and the dangers still follows you guys day in and day out, every single place you gentlemen and ladies go. The things you see and help with is I’m quite sure ingrained in your minds, memories, dreams, etc... So please be safe gentlemen and watch each other’s backs out there, the road is a highly, highly dangerous place. Especially with your specific jobs and the specific places you guys and gals work. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for doing what must feel like a thankless job more times than not.
