Wow! extreamly sad to hear this. Ken offered to let me use the shop and his help to change my interior for no charge, and I had'nt even met him in person. Great guy!!

I am deeply saddened by the sudden passing of Ken. He put my interior together for me at carlisle. He was a man of his word and I will always remember him as such. May he rest in peace.

Well i am stunned. I met Ken at Carlisle 2 years ago. What a great guy with a super personality. He did the interior on my 98 LPE. Now I will have his awesome craftmanship and his love for the Corvette community with me always. God Bless and my prayers are with the family
God speed Ken.

This is indeed terrible news. My thoughts and prayers are with Ken's family and friends.

The man upstairs certainly takes all the good ones. I had the chance to talk with him this year at Carlisle and he was too young to have passed . . .

My prayers are with his family.

This is terrible! I just found out about this today. Corvetteworx used to be located in the same complex as VE. Ken became a good friend during that time. I have been trying to reach him for weeks regarding one of our customers orders. I just found out today why i had not got a call back.

He will be deeply missed by us. He was truely a good person, and a lot of fun to be around. It is hard to believe someone as energetic and healthy could suddenly just pass like this. I am in absolute shock!

Have heard great things about Ken and Sandy. A friend of mine has had Vette Essential do interior work for his C6. Ken will be missed greatly by many , Sandy and family have a world of people behind them. Our prayers are with you.

God bless Sandy and the King Family. Our deepest condolences to you and our prayers are with you.

This post deserves a TTT for those that may have missed it

I only shared a couple of nice conversations with Ken, but those few were enough for me to know that he was the real deal on interior work. Although he will be dearly missed, I hope the great Vette Essential tradition continues. Best to all his family.

I believe the tradition will be continuing. I'll be taking a ride up there to pick up my C6 seats and other items this week.

Hate to hear news like this. The Corvette world has truly lost a very good person.

Damn I just saw this.

My thoughts and paryers go out to Ken's family.

I was an early customer of his and very impressed by his outstanding customer service.

I had ordered his sport package and while I was at a cruise inn he came up to me with a lil tiny trim piece that he had forgotten. I had totally forgot, but Ken had not and he apologized for the oversight (there was never an apology needed). Anyway, I was hooked from then on and recommended his service and product whenever I could.
Last time I saw him was in Chicago. Chatted with him while he put the finishing touches on his yellow vert.

Ken will be sorely missed by us all.


RIP Ken
