Lt Ken Ballard, my hero!
Balloon Release
Celebrating Ken's Life
7.23.05
On Saturday, July 23, 2005 a
group of Ken's friends & family gathered at Cuesta Park In Mountain View and
released 28 gold balloons in honor of Ken's 28th birthday.
When I ordered the balloons, I
told the man I didn't need the expensive helium because I was just going to
release them. His look seemed to indicate that might not be so
environmentally correct. I looked at him and asked "How can they get to
heaven if we don't release them?" He didn't need to respond.
Exactly!
It was a beautiful day to
remember Ken and to hear more "Ken stories"
Thanks to everyone who
attended.
