Help the family of friend & brother Ken Leissler

Hi, I'm Jonathan Hagen a conductor out of Port Jervis and it is truly with a heavy heart that I write this. So many times I wished it wasn't true, but sadly I'm coming to the realization I'll never see my friend Kenny again. I had met Kenny early on in my career here with NJT and we truly hit it off right away. He was always the first with a joke, stories, impression, or anything else to put a smile on yours or a passengers face. From day one working out of Port he helped guide me and many others on this crazy career path and he will always be remembered as a great trainmen and a devoted father. Kenny would take any chance he had to brag about his boys and their accomplishments, always showing photos and videos. I'm really going to miss the smile he got on his face talking about their futures. He always spoke about when his boys would work here and how proud that would make him. So I'm asking everyone to donate what they can to help ease some of the financial burden his wife and children will suffer in the near future and to help reach the goals he had for his amazing family.

Thank You
