Saddened to read the obituary of my old friend Ken Potter. We met during our days at the University of California, Berkeley. I cherish many fond memories of our days together. He was always a dear and loyal friend. I last saw him when he attended our wedding in Lander WY in 1978. My heartfelt condolences to his wife Barbara and daughter Jordanna.

Sincerely,
Dan Sullivan

Rest In Peace dear friend.

Sincerely,
Dan Sullivan
Daniel J. Sullivan, M.D.
Kenneth had a way with animals. Our dog Angus adored him. Kenneth also had a way with words. We always looked forward to his thoughtful and beautiful pre meal blessings. You are missed. Godspeed Kenneth. Frank and Laurie
