    1. I have known Ken since we moved into our home on 52nd st. I would see him with his little Dachshund Buddy everyday. Over the years I would stop and talk to him while I was walking my dogs. He was all alone all these years, except for his beloved Buddy. I only wish I had done more to give him company, other than Christmas cards left at his door and cookies occasionally. I hope somehow to find out if there is a funeral for him, but have no way to get this information. I am very distraught.
