I remember when we were kids on Columbia Street and how we use to run and play hide and seek in the bushes, T.V. tag and cops and robbers. I'll remember those fun times we had together. May God watch over you as you enter the gates of heaven.
My Deepest Sympathy to family and friends.

For Kenny's daughter and family...
Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush, I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft star that shines at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there. I did not die.
Rest In Peace My Friend, Love Jennifer and family. XXOO

Kenny was a great Uncle as I saw him with Laura and Bruce's children. He tried to share what he knew and loved with his nieces and nephews. My condolences to all his family.
