I received the news of Julie's passing late this afternoon from another friend of Ken's that had called Ken. Julie's son answered the phone. He knew right away something was wrong when Julie's son said that Ken wanted to talk to him and tell him the bad news.
Julie was a really nice lady! I never met her personally but I talked to her many times on the phone. She had a way about her that always made you feel that she enjoyed talking with you.
All I can say is Ken you have my deepest sympathy and I'll talk to you soon.
She may have been ill for awhile, given the lack of posts by Ken of late.
Thanks, Doug, for letting us all know. Ken and family will be in my prayers.
Stan
We will keep both of them in our prayers. Ken has been rarely heard from lately and many have wondered how he was. Sorry to hear of his loss. God bless them.

Mr. Hurst & family,
My prayers that the constant memories will always prevolk a smile and the times & events that come to mind are the good ones, the ones that counted. I also pray that the present sense of loss does not linger, rather that it passes quickly for all of you.

Dear Ken,
My heart goes out to you and your family. I am happy that my late wife and I had the chance to break bread (well, run cake anyway) with you. Having lost my wife of forty years 21 months ago I have an idea what you are feeling. You will not forget the life you had with her but the pain will subside and pass and you will heal. Keep busy with what you love as soon as you are ready. It will help.
