Engraver Ken Hurst has passed
 

I noticed on another forum that my old friend Ken Hurst has died.

I knew Ken from many years ago. And the adjective "character" applied perfectly.

He will be missed...

Wonderful that he is shown with the “Chrysler Fox”.
A true artist!

RIP Ken






.

Ken was one of the good ones. RIP.

Why do the good ones have to go....

I had a talk with Ken before his passing and he had cancer,he was good friend to me and I will miss our many talks on the art of engraving.RIP J.J.

I just got off the phone with my friend, the owner of the Chrysler Fox in the posted picture. He is not well either. Ken has been my friend for a long time, both a face to face and a phone friend. Ken has always been willing to do favors and called regularly, even when he was severely depressed and had nothing to say. His lovely wife passed, and almost like clockwork, his collection disappeared under suspicious circumstances. He refused offers of help to recover his beloved work. What a great guy we have lost. Bill Murphy, Mister Bill to Ken.

Sad news .....

Ken helped me with a few "issues" early in my career.
