Sad News

For those of you that have not heard, Ken Simmons' wife, Nancy passed away Friday morning. Ken is one of the founding members of the Georgia Guild. She is survived by Ken and their two sons.

Nancy was a unique individual and she loved to talk knives as well as collect them. I've only knew her for a short time but know she will be missed greatly by many.
Mrs. Joan will hopefully post more detailed information.

Please keep Ken and his boys in your prayers as they go through this difficult time.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Ken as well. Sorry we couldn't make it to the memorial today, but other commitments keep us away. Sympathies and best wishes, Ken. I never met Nancy, but from everything I've heard about her, simply knowing her was a blessing. Take care, brother.
