Love to all of  Kenneth's family and friends.  I am proud to be his friend.  Indeed, he was such a close friend to my parents that he was part of our family.  Ken knew my dad in the army, was there when dad went AWOL the night I was born.  He knew my grandparents.  My father's dad dubbed him Kenny Boy and Laura and I continued to call him  that even into his venerable nineties.  He laughed and delighted in our silliness and loved to kid around.  He generously shared  wonderful records and books, helped paint our living room in the Bronx an exotic lemon yellow and  enjoyed many family jokes.   He happily drove us to the Bronx Zoo, Jones Beach and to visit with his mom, sweet Dolly.   He introduced his friends to mom and pop and they became family friends as well.  
So thank you dear Kenny Boy for all this and much more.  We love you.


Kenneth , or Kenny Boy as we called him, was a cherished friend of my parents ever since he met my father, Harold Schatzberg, in the army.  He was a part of my childhood as a dear uncle. He would make the trek from Brooklyn to the Bronx to pick us up and take us to Jones Beach on  summer days.
He remained close to my mother until her death in 2008.  My sister and I kept in touch as often as we could. We both live in California. 
The photo is  a family favorite.
I will miss his fine sense of humor and the fine human he was. 
My condolences to the family especially to Betsy and Allan and Susan and John of whom he often spoke.
