COVID-19: Ken died

| September 6, 2020 1:00 AM

I spent last week with Ken’s widow, sorting out her life without him. Ken was one of my BFFs, one of the good guys, who could make you smile and laugh. Ken was my age and vulnerable, caught COVID-19 through no fault of his own in a place that he thought was safe. Ken died in the hospital, in misery and alone.

COVID-19 is real. Please be responsible by wearing your mask, washing your hands, and social distancing. The life you save may be mine, or your BFF’s, or your mother’s.
