Ken Richmond was my friend. In the four years I knew him, we shared many things, especially our common commitment to preserving the memories of our ancestors who served in the Union Army during the Civil War. To this cause, Ken applied a seemingly endless reserve of dedication and stamina from which we have all benefitted and learned. The world is a lesser place in his absence, but I am a better person for knowing him. I will miss him and think of him often. His vision will live on through his brothers. Rest in peace, my friend, you done good.
