Written by Ken's sibling, this memoir traces a full life shaped by love, achievement and the particular challenges that followed when Alzheimer’s developed in midlife. It sketches who Ken was before the disease and how his personality, kindness and accomplishments touched those around him.

The book gathers short remembrances and moments that reveal both everyday joys and hard truths: how genetic factors link Down syndrome and early dementia, and how care needs change as people age. These scenes offer a compassionate portrait rather than clinical summary.

Alongside personal storytelling, the author highlights gaps in health and social supports and urges greater understanding and better models of care for adults with Down syndrome who develop dementia. A portion of proceeds supports a foundation created for that cause.
