My deepest sympathy to Lynn and the children. I had just called Kenny that morning and left him a message. I was really taken back when I heard the news. Kenny has been a longtime co-worker, fishing mate, and most of all friend. I will miss him.

Kenny's booming laugh and genuine smile will be sorely missed in our workspace. If you were ever having a down day, he would always lighten the mood with one if his many hunting or fishing stories. Kenny, you will be sorely missed.
May the Lord hold you and keep you Kenny and family.
Rest in Peace Ken!

I write this with a heavy heart,as Kenny and I have been great friends for close to 30 years. I am really going to miss him. It was a friendship that I treasured highly. My heart really sunk, when I got the news that he had passed, and my heart go out to lynn and the children, as well as the rest of his family. But as we all know, God is still in control. Kenny was a great fun loving guy. Rest on my friend(sob) and may we meet again someday around the heavenly throne. Your Friend, Your Hunting partner.

Kenny and I have crossed paths many times over the years, as we worked for the same division. He was always fun to be around, and he was well liked by his coworkers. May he rest in peace, Derek
