We are so saddened by Ken's passing. I always loved being around him. He was so full of life. He reminded me of his dad who was my favorite uncle. He will be missed by me and by the entire family here in PA. I do take solace, though, with the thought that he is now sitting at a table with all of the Kosinski men, talking about things over a shot/beer until it is time for him to play them a polka....

Kenny grew up 5 doors down from me and I spent many days there listening while his band practiced. He called me his adopted sister.

Memories of old times we had together. The 60's dances with Bob, Patty, Tom, myself, Julie and of course the rubel rouser Ken. He is in our mighty Lord's hands now, with His everlasting love nd mercy. Family and friends you are in our prayers

I have such fond memories of Kenny. I remember when we were kids, the whole family would always get together at uncle Stanley and aunt Gertie and Kenny’s home and Mettler Street and have a big family New Year’s Eve party. All of us cousins would be together and have such a great time. I also remember spending summers on vacation at Long Lake in Alpena Michigan. Kenny and I of course were in grade school and my mother and father and older sister Marcia and aunt Gertie and uncle Stanley and Kenny would all go to Alpena and stay in a cottage. Kenny was two years older than me and I always looked up to him. We had great times fishing with our fathers and just playing together at the lake. I will never forget those times. My sincere condolences to your wonderful family and I remember you in my prayers.

There were also many summers when my mom and dad my sister Marcia and myself and uncle Stanley and aunt Gertie and Kenny would all go to long lake in Alpena Michigan for a vacation. And it was a great time to be with my older cousin Kenny. We would go fishing, and he would try to teach me to catch a baseball! Ha ha! A joke between him and me. My sincere condolences to your wonderful family. You are all in my prayers.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
