Not sure what to say?

Kenneth, you and Tony were friends for many years and that friendship was cherished by Tony. I was fortunate to have met you in 2023 and enjoyed the times that we had over pool. Thank you for your friendship you had with Tony and everything you have done as a League Operator for NAPA. You will be missed by so many. Your kindness and your laughter that everyone knew will always be remembered and cherished by all. Our condolences to his family, prayers for peace and comfort during this time.

I just very recently had the pleasure to meet Kenny and his lovely Fiancé Karen. They were always laughing and joking around with each other. You could see the love they had for each other. So sorry for your loss Karen. My prayers are with you and his children.

Kenneth will for ever be missed. He was a true friend. He was the only friend to ever come see me after I moved to Arkansas. He had a laughter I will never forget. He got me through some very rough times. RIP Kenneth! Much love!

We didn’t know Ken very long but we liked him from the first time we met him. He will be missed by both me and my family

Kenneth is a good man.! We could butt heads. But we were always good at the next pool match!
He is a great league director. That laugh could make ya miss the easiest of shots, on a pool table.
He glowed when he talked about his kids and grandkids!

He will leave a hole in the pool world.
Prayers for his parents an grandparents. I can't imagine.

I am so sorry to his children and grandchildren for their loss of their amazing dad and grandfather to my grandsons Blake and Jackson. I’ve only met him two times and the last time that I met him, he was fabulous with those boys and his daughter Brittany. You could see that he loved his grandchildren to the moon and back and I wanted to thank him for those boys being able to meet you and love you bumpy you are loved so so very much. It makes me very, very sad that my boys will never see you...

Survivor: fiancee Karen Sexson and son Dylan George.
Prayers for all

He was my best friend in high school...
