Dan Snyder wrote a sympathy message

“Kenneth was an inspiration and a mentor while we were in high school. He supported us personally, in sports and in academics. He was committed to our becoming responsible, mature adults. In the past ten years, we had the opportunity to get to know Kenneth as a devoted husband, father and as a friend. Experiencing his humanness and his caring for life and for others was a blessing indeed. Thank you, Kenneth, for our earlier and our later experiences together.”
