We could not be more grateful for Ken’s direction and contributions to and through the Flames Foundation. From REACH!, Rotary Flames House, Flames Community Arenas, Health Training Camps and so much more, we are better because of him, and so is this community. Thank you Ken.

He was our leader and our friend and he will be greatly missed.
