Sherry and family, I am so sorry to read about Ken's death. I worked with him at DeWitt's in Beaumont along time ago. He was such a good, fun and funny man. I will never forget his kindness to me at work and in my personal life. I will always remember him as a giant of a man, always laughing so loudly and making jokes. My thought and prayers are with you at such a difficult time. Remember you have family and friends to turn to if you ever need anything. My number is 409-466-1457. Seriously call if you need anything. Rachel

The greatest memories I have of my uncle are from my childhood. He was invinceable and sometimes very intimidating, but was a lot of fun to be around. He was a big ole teddy bear deep down, and really loved a good joke. May we all remember the good times we shared with him. God Bless! Love Tina

I have been part of the Kidder family most of my life as I grew up with Karen & Kim. I am so sad for the family that Mr. Kidder has passed and I hope that the days and weeks ahead are filled with fond memories that may help ease the pain of his loss. My thoughts are with you all through this time of sorrow.
