Ken was the nicest man. And the best plumber. So sorry for the family’s loss.
Our hearts are indeed deeply saddened by the loss of Mr Wilkerson.
We had just met Ken last year when we were somehow blessed by being referred to him for plumbing issues in our small home in Pittsburg. Being from Kansas City, we didn't really know who to call and sadly found some that weren't as dependable or above board as we'd hoped. Ken was not only knowledgeable and helpful, but so personable .... and honest. We will miss him for his extremely kind spirit.
Our very deepest condolences to the family. May our Lord keep you kindly in His care, and surround each of you with His comfort and peace.

I didn't know Ken well but he helped with several plumbing problems and he will be missed. His family has my deepest condolences for their loss. I know that his son, Chris, will miss him a lot as they were always together on jobs.
Karen and family, I worked with Ken at McNally as an electrician on evening shift 1975 to 1979. Ken was a great person and friend. I enjoyed working with him and learning from him. We moved our trail home to Airport Rd, he helped me dig the trench for electrical and phone cables, also installed the boxes for the meter and electrical connections.

Karen and family, I am so sorry for your loss. I went to high school with Ken and I enjoyed his involvement with the reunions. He was always the voice of reason! He will be missed by all those that knew him. May his memories bring you lasting peace. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. Jana Casey Jones
I am saddened to see this. Kenny was a friend that I cannot measure when we lived in Pittsburg. His wisdom and knowledge were so appreciated, from his electrical expertise, He would roll his eyes at my work! His technical skills helping me build strange devices and even exercise equipment. The craziness of wood burners and cutting fire wood! And a few automobile projects thrown in for good measure. My thoughts and prayers are for Karen, Buffy and Chris, all their families and friends for peace and healing! I pray the memories of Kennys life will be an ongoing celebration! GOD BLESS you all !!! Manfred, Debra and the Piazza families!!
