The Rev. Dr. Kenneth A. Fiery

I knew Ken through "A Course in Miracles" I attended in the community. Although I only knew him for a short time, I knew he was a gifted man with a wonderful presence of light. Even in his passing, he inspires me to strive to be the best version of my self. Till we meet again (and we will), shine on....

Hello, I am writing to let you know I have wonderful memories of both of your parents from my days riding Morgan horses with Shirley Tallman and showing your dad's beloved horse Julie. I am sorry to hear about both of them passing in such a short amount of time. They were both lovely people and I am lucky to have shared moments with them! May God bless them both.

Dear John & Bill, I learned about your Dad's death from Liz Cooper, who is a neighbor here in Laconia. I would love to be able to share some photos of the precious paintings that we have of your Dads. He was part of the scattering of my husband Bill's ashes in Oct, 2020, and I have a photo of him from that day. If you could send me your email, I'd appreciate it. I thought I'd asked him for John's phone number, as I was wondering how I'd ever learn about his death. He was my husbands favorite person - and our whole family's too. There are lots of stories to share . I was so worried when he was trying to carry on alone. But he assured me that Danielle and the neighbors were keeping his fridge stocked. I saw him with your Mom when she was at Bedford Falls, and they seemed very optimistic, but he always was! I often talked to your Dad during his monthly infusions, when he was just hanging out at the hospital. I want to believe that he and Rosemary and Bill are all somewhere happily reunited. With affection Barb Z.

I have known Ken and Rosemary forever and they were such lovely people. I will miss them dearly, both in my life and in the neighborhood. We know they are bright stars in the sky and are looking down on all of us. Bless them both!

Ken was such a lovely warm and funny man. I knew him through the Course in Miracles community and I loved talking to him when I could. I know how much his weekly meeting group loved him and his wife. He will be deeply missed and I know we'll see his light continue to shine in the heavens.

A life well-lived. I've known Ken since we were kids and his mother, Elinor led the Camp Fire Girls Troup in Edmonston, MD. We went through Northwestern High School together, and throughout all those years, Ken was one of those people whose company was always a joy. Among all his many great qualities, and there is not enough room to list them, my favorite was the devilish twinkle in his eye when he was ready to say something hilarious, which he did frequently. Even as a young boy there was an aura about Ken that foretold his future as a man with many gifts. The previous comments are a testament to the lives he has lifted and the talents he's shared. He was truly a good soul. Though he will be greatly missed, it is a comfort to know that he has rejoined his loving wife, Rosemary for eternity. My deepest sympathy goes out to his family.

Our deepest condolences to you all. Such a loss so quickly after Rosemary. May the cherished memories you have bring a smile to you at this time. They are not gone, they are always in our hearts.

Our deepest condolences to the family. We knew Ken (and Rosemary) as our neighbors for years when we lived in Nashua. Their gardens were so beautiful. Ken would always love the tomatoes we would share with him. Such fine people!! Our last night in Nashua, they invited us over and we were gifted with a small painting that Ken had done of our backyard. We treasure it!!

Ken was both a gentle man and a gentleman. His artwork was amazing. One of his prints hangs in our office and is often admired by our patients and enjoyed by both Bruce and me. Our deepest condolences to you all as you reminisce on a life well lived. Rest in peace, Ken!

What a lovely tribute to Ken. I only knew him professionally and was not aware of a lot of personal information. I was privileged to know him. He was a wonderful kind soul, may he rest in peace with his beloved Rosemary. Thoughts and prayers for your family.

I knew Ken from a therapy consultation group. I used to send out postcards with his paintings announcing his art shows. I still have some trimmed to fit in the frame of a perpetual calendar. A fine man and bright light has left us. My prayers and condolences.

I came to know Ken as a colleague in a counselor collaboration/support group during his years as a pastoral psychotherapist. Ken is sealed in my memory as a most genuine, and caring person who worked so hard to understand and help others. I should add that all four of my children knew Ken’s wife, Rosemary, as the schoolhouse equivalent in their years as children attending Birch Hill elementary school. They were special people.

I loved both Ken and Rosemary dearly. As a high school student in the 1960s during Ken's pastorate at the First Baptist Church of Nashua, I learned, through Ken's guidance, to live my faith by seeking social justice. As part of our youth group experience, Ken introduced us to a program called "Project Friendship," teaming older youth with younger children in a mentor situation. He was always an inspiration--so intelligent, so talented, and yet so humble. He will be missed. I send my condolences to John, Bill, and their families.

Sorry to read about your dad's passing, Bill. It's a hard thing when they're both gone. A void that doesn't get filled. I wish you all the best. Both of your parents were really nice people.

On behalf of the members of First Baptist Church Nashua, I offer our deepest condolences. I think of Ken often when walking by a beautiful painting he gave us, now hanging in our Narthex. He was a very talented artist and a kind soul. I’m grateful to have known him, even if only just a bit. God love Ken. God bless him. God keep him safe.
