All the colors of sunset. All the colors of the fall leaves. A love like ours never dies, but may lie dormant, just for awhile. Until I can hold you again, and feel your breath upon my cheek, I will dream of you, as I always do.

Kenny it's been 5 months and I still think of you everyday. I speak of us all the time to family and friends. I can't seem to face realiy that you are really gone. Tears still come to my eyes when I think of "us" and what we shared. Not out of sadness, but love. You still bring a smile to my face and laughter to my heart, I pray that never fades! I miss you so very much love. I know you are with me, looking over all that you love and love you. I hear the crows calling your name "ha-ha". You would look to the sky and yell back I'm awake stop calling me....lol You still fill my heart with love! Missing you always.....xoxo

Dedicated to my love:
I cherish the memories that I am so blessed to have of the years we shared together. We shared a life that only some would imagine to have. We laughed, cried, dreamed, planned, shared, and supported one another with our journeys. You filled my heart like no other man has or ever will. You are one of a kind and I am so very thankful to have loved and been loved by you. You were my “soul mate, best friend, fiancé, and lover”. Kenny, you truly were my “better/other” half.
We traveled many places and sang together over the miles, best no one else was listening….. You would take an off the main road path just to find something of interest and share with me. Fall was our favorite time to take our yearly ”leaf drive”. The change of color was breath taking as we find ourselves on the mountain tops looking over the valleys. Something you looked forward to share with me and in our last wishes will share forever!
Your voice is still whispering in my ear. The scent of your body still surrounds me. Your touch will always be with me. The way you held me at night and rocked me to sleep. The way you would hum and hold me, would settle me down no matter how bad of a day I had. You always had a way of comforting me. You made me feel safe, secure, and loved. The way you would interlock our toes before you could fall asleep. I still don’t understand that one, but only with you silly.
I loved the way we could be in a crowded room and you would stand tall (5’18” tall) and yell, “ Linda Kay I have my eye on you”. Maybe people thought we were silly, but Kenny you were my Gentle Giant and anyone who knew you knows what I mean! I always knew I was safe with you by my side, ALWAYS! YOU were my blankey! You would wrap yourself around me and I felt so protected and secure, like a child. Your gentle kiss on my forehead brings a smile to my face……
Kenny, you would make me laugh no matter where we were what we were doing or who was around. I guess we made each other laugh which is one thing I loved to do…..see your smile and hear your deep hearted laugh. Remember when you asked me about your hair drying on top first….. I had to inform you of your bald spot. We were late for our x-mas party because you wouldn’t put down the second mirror for trying to see the top of your head. God, how I laughed about that…still laughing just thinking of it! The way you would look over me when we got mad, literally over me. I would jump up and down just to get eye to eye with you. Then you would sing watch them jiggle watch them wiggle as you laughed. No wonder we didn’t argue, you made a joke of everything. Another reason why you are so easy to love. I loved the way you were never in a rush. Although at times it drove me crazy to be late for events it is another quality I loved about you. Your bike still sits in pieces waiting for you to put her back together. You said, “don’t rush” good things take time. Boy was I angry with you that 4th of July! But, I loved taking care of you and Nursing you back to good health. Like the time you were sick with the stones. I can’t wait to tell stories of us now that you will be smiling down on everyone telling wonderful memories of you! (I love you Baby! I won’t get into to much detail telling them…..lol).
Baby, you became a part of me as no other can. My family loves you and will miss you being with us. Our Grand daughter is trying to understand, but Alayna is still a little young to comprehend it all. She has so many great memories of you. You loved her like your own telling her she was the apple of your eye. She talks about the car washes, snowballs, dancing, playing on the floor with her. I LOVED seeing you lay next to this tiny baby, putting her in our bed for nap time. Oh yes, I remember nap time…. I’ll never forget them! You were so wonderful with our Grand daughter and I thank you for loving her as you do. Your memory will continue to be a part of her…
I’ll miss the way you would dance with me, bent over just to hold me. The way you would look at me telling me how beautiful I was and how much you loved me. I never questioned our love for any reason. We had something that only a chosen few ever have. You told me you wanted our parent’s marriage, one that was true, real, for a life time. Baby, we had that and more!
I could go on forever writing this, but I guess to sum it all up…..
You are my everything! I miss you, love you, and will never forget you! Until we meet again, I know you are with me and I am with you. I pray to God, his arms are wrapped around you making you feel the way you made me feel. No pain, no worries, no problems. Looking over you Kenny, protecting you from all that brought you to him. AS you told me,” our love will never fade it is only miles between us”! “Rest my love, rest…………..I’ll be home soon”.

Wishing peace to you, Kenny, and comfort to your family as they learn how to live without your physical presence. However, I am sure you are watching over everyone from a better place. You will be missed. The pig roast and other family functions will not be the same.

Kenny "Haha",
Friends come in all shapes, sizes and ages. I am very happy I had the opportunity to call you my friend! I will miss your funny jokes and crazy stories on Tuesday nights. I can still hear your voice and see you playing with your beard. The next concert I go to, I'll know you will be there in spirit. Thanks for all of the memories that you leave me with. I love you and will always miss you xoxoxo

Dear Kenny,
I have already given up trying to answer all of the questions I have - it hurts too bad. I'm sad that you're gone. I'm angry that you're gone. I guess we'll talk whenever I see you again.
Remember when we met about 19 years ago in the Machinist Apprentice Class? What a group we made, huh? I took an instant liking to you because of your gregarious nature and I could tell that you had a genuine heart and truly loved living. My God, the way we all tormented Boxhead! Now that was fun!
I'll always remember Wednesday nights with NeverNever at The Zu. You, me and Stipek. I truly miss that. Only one problem though...whenever we bought you a shot, you'd disappear! How could just one shot make a man of your size just frickin' disappear?! Damndest thing I ever saw. How did you do that?!?
Do you remember the crab feast that I sponsored many years ago and one of your guests kept hitting on my then-girlfriend? All you had to do was walk up to him, look down at him and say, "You really don't want to do that, do you?" and everything was ok. I miss that.
Trophy rockfishing without you just won't be the same. Thanks for including me. Catching huge (except for mine) rockfish and telling jokes and laughing all day...could it get any better than that? I think not!
Thank you Ha Ha. Thanks for making my life more interesting. Thanks for reminding me not to take myself too seriously. Thanks for listening when I needed a sympathetic ear. Thanks for being Ha Ha.
I will never forget you, Kenny. I will remember you always as a smart, funny and caring man who would do absolutely anything for his friends.
Until we meet again Kenny, rest well for there is no more torment.
I miss you my friend.
Rick

HaHa,
RIP, I will never forget you and either will Mom or Alayna. You are in our hearts and I hope looking down on us. You were a part of our life for a long time and I appricate the impact you had on my life, you were very patient with me...you taught me how to drive, you loved my mother like no one else ever has and made her feel special, you loved alayna like she was your blood...the apple of your eye!, You would take her to the car wash just to see her giggle, for snowballs in the summer, read stories to her and most of all was very loving and patient when she wanted to be held. To this day she remembers the times you have taken her dancing, was the easter bunny, caught her crabs and she also misses you dearly. Your memory is with us all.

Kenny was my "soulmate" as he always told me. I will always hold his love close to my heart. We shared many memories and learned so much from each other. We traveled many places and shared new experiences. Our love will always be more then I can express, I will miss and love him. Until we meet again my love, your memeory will never be forgotten! My love and prayers go out to his family. Again, thank you for including me in his memorial service, it means alot to me.

We met Ken through the TRIAL Club. We only knew him a few short years but became good friends. Ken loved the Club and was proud to be the BAR chairman. He put in a lot of his time and himself to the Club. We had attended concerts, going to Dover Speedway, Crabing at the Wye River with Bill and the many events at the Club. We will always remember the stories that you told us at the Club. You could always make us laugh. We will think of you often and miss you always.

MANY MEMORIES THAT WE WILL KEEP, THE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS WE SPENT WITH KEN "DOWN THE CLUB" WHEN KEN CAUGHT CRABS AND INVITED THE FAMILY ALONG and SOME OF HIS FRIENDS TO SHARE ALL THE CRABS THAT HE CAUGHT--NO MATTER THAT THERE WAS ONLY A SMALL AGE DIFFERENCE, I WAS ALWAYS "UNCLE AL"
