My brother and fellow troublemaker when we were two young guys running around raising hell. He's the guy responsible for getting me into Harleys and tattoos, and I am forever grateful for that. I got my last tattoo from him this past January, but the imprint this man has left in my life is eternal.

I always liked when we visited Kenny and he busted out one of his big bear hugs. I especially like the stories he used to tell and ratted out Steve about brushes with the law and crazy girls. What a legacy he leaves. He'll be sorely missed.

My heart goes with prayers of comfort and love to my dear old friend Angela, JoDee and Teresa. Kenny and I reconnected on facebook and rekindled our friendship. He was truly a proud papa, bragging about the amazing talents of his daughters every chance he could. He was an incredibly talented man with an honest and true soul to those he loved. He will be missed. I pray for his soul to restin peace. May you be comforted in this time of sorrow.
