Ken was a joy to work with and I mean that from the bottom of my heart! Not only did he offer to "test" the organ at the church where we were getting married, but he discovered a problem with the organ that the church had to have fixed before the wedding or we would've had to switch to piano music instead. He offered to play either instrument and was so calm at both my rehearsal and wedding, even though we had a medical emergency outside the church that delayed the start of our wedding! He never missed a beat and just kept playing prelude music until we could start the ceremony (about 10 minutes late:) I can't thank Ken enough for making our wedding ceremony and the music he played for us so wonderfully special. He's just the most professional and personable musician I've ever met. And his mastery of music is exemplary! Thank you, Ken.

Quotables:
"From the moment of his initial contact with me, the officiant, Ken has been stellar with communications and in his desire to make the service as personal as possible. When I met Ken at the wedding rehearsal, it was like I've known him my entire life. He is professional, accomplished, personal, amicable, and a pleasure to work with. Hope to work again with him in the future!" Father Gerry Waterman, officiant
