Dear Ken and Family, I have many memories of Kenny from knowing this family for over twenty years. Kenny loved to play his guitar and as a young man he and my son, Jimmy, used to jam together. I had the opportunity to visit with him, and his faithful dog, while he lived in Oregon. Kenny will be missed by his father, brother and sister and his friends.
