Evidence established that the bomb had been placed inside a piece of luggage, planted by Libyan intelligence operatives.

Ken was an artist and a writer with a love of music as indicated by the music scale. If you go to the "More about Ken" link, you will see an example of one of his drawings done when he was 11 years old. It is a remarkable rendering for someone so young. The same "Utopia Man" is also represented in the center of the quilt. Because of his love of music, his parents provide a donation in his memory to the Cornell College of Music.
The link mentioned above was created in loving memory by friends at the Iona Preparatory School who wanted to do something in his memory. The friendship he shared with his friends was memorialized in a unique way when a close friend and his wife, Michael and Robin Nicholas, named their infant daughter Ava Bissett Nicholas and invited his mother to the christening. For her it was such a special thing to do. Ken attended the London session with Syracuse as a student from Cornell. In the Cornell Memorial Service, they showed some framed illustrations created by Ken which targeted issues such as terrorism and drugs. He also wrote for the Cornell newspaper about these issues. One of the articles is highlighted on the quilt - "The Legal of Liquor". All of Ken's art work was donated to Syracuse in thanks for their kindness following the bombing. They are maintained in the Syracuse archives for other students to review his work. A recipient scholar felt she had learned a great deal from this and indicated to his parents her wish that other student work's might be donated in the same way to add to the store of information available to students.
