Veteran known for playing 'Taps' at sunset leaves Florida after health problems

If you live around Indian Rocks Beach, you’ve likely been treated to one of Florida’s most breathtaking sunsets. This popular spot draws a crowd almost nightly. People gather to take in the calm and the color and give thanks for another day.
It is a location that truly provides a treat for the eyes. And, for years, that patch of sand was also a treat for the ears, too, thanks to a local veteran’s bugle.
For six years here, Ken Deka was as reliable as the sun. He was often seen walking the shoreline before faithfully playing his favorite song. Deka is a veteran who served in the Vietnam War. He learned to play Taps in the Army and started to play the 24-note song as the sun went down each night to pay tribute to his friends who never made it home from war.
