A graduate of Rutgers University, Ken was a devoted educator with the Bernards Township School System in the Special Education Department as well as the Head Boys’ Soccer Coach, prior to retiring in South Carolina. He was well respected by his soccer peers and his passion for soccer extended to the various teams he coached both at the community and state level. He was an avid Liverpool F.C. and New York Ranger supporter. His love for the outdoors and music were only surpassed by the love he had for his family.
