I am so sorry for Kennys death. I give all my love and sympathy to his family.I remember him when he was working at Murray Chevrolet. I think he took my dads job after he retired. Kenny was a very nice person and he was extra nice to everyone. He had my brothers name who was Kenny Smallwood and i miss him dearly. we all know that he is going to a better place and that his work is all done but we will still miss him. We will be together again someday and maybe even my brother and him will be racing cars in heaven. Lets just think that they will be. There is nothing else that i can say but do remember your good times that you had and that you will see him again someday. Call on me if you need a extra helping hand for somet hing little that i could do for you.
