Dear Lee and Family,
Kenny and I worked together for over 20 years at Engine 270. Kenny was a very good and competent firefighter. Though we went through some difficult experiences we still managed to have many laughs. He always brought alot of fun to the house.
He was very proud of his children and grandchildren. I'm happy he had such a good, loving wife especially in these difficult years of illness.
My wife Robin and I send our deepest condolences to you all. I will cherish my fond memories of my brother Kenny.
Most sincerely,
Joe Alonge
