Dear Valerie, Michael & Becky,
We are sending our sincere condolences on the loss or your husband and father. We had a very warm friendship over 34 years with so many memories.
We remember so well Kenny pulling in our apartment complex in his blue Ford with the NH plate "MINNIE". Val and me in her Vega, both of us pregnant and a wheel fell off.
Val and Kenny bought Allen and I a gift for our first baby, Heather, to wear home from the Elliot Hospital. Four months later we got a gift for Kenny and Val's baby girl, Becky, to wear home from the hospital.
Val, your Kenny will live in your heart forever. Michael, Becky your Dad will watch over your families until you all unite again
Our thoughts and prayers will be with you all on Tuesday.
Allen Young, Ann Marie Young, Bonnie Young-Noble, Troy Noble, Heather Young-Ward, Stefanie Young, Lauren Young, Christine Young-Cannimore
