Uncle Kenny always kept everyone in the family well grounded. His humor and direct comments kept us all coming back to visit him and Linda from all corners of the planet. The generosity displayed by both Kenny and Linda are unmatched and will forever be the legacy that we will remember. From the water skiing on the river at family pic-nics and volley ball with Kenny providing the commentary in his yard are some of the most prolific memories we all share.
May God rest the soul of this good man. Love, Woody
