OLIVER, Nancyann,

HERMAN, Ken,

Ken was born in Glenview, Illinois in 1920.

He was visiting family in Illinois when he became ill. He recovered sufficiently to be transported back to California with his daughter Jennifer. He was happy to spend his last days in the warm California climate, return to his family and the pool house. Ken loved the sun. People always marveled at his perpetual tan and his positive attitude. He was a joy and will be missed by many, especially his family.

Ken was a veteran of WWII. He served in the Pacific earning a Purple Heart.

During recent years he suffered from Macular Degeneration. He was active at the Blind Center of the VA in Palo Alto, twice serving as President of the Blind Veterans Association.

He is survived by his brother Clyde Herrmann of IL, his daughters Prudence Minnehan of Alamo, CA, Jennifer Dervis of Boston, MA and son Scott Herman of San Jose, CA, four granddaughters, Angela, Kimberly, Bergen and Alexandra and two great grandchildren, Jonathan and Dianne.

The funeral was held at Spangler Mortuary in Los Altos on February 27, followed by a burial at Alta Mesa Memorial Park in Palo Alto.

Donations can be made in Ken’s name to the American Cancer Society.
