I remember Mr. Fenchel when he welcomed me into the Fenchel home to spend time with my buddy Bobbi....he always made me feel like a member of the family, warm, friendly and very funny...I've never forgotten him, his wife or any of the Fenchel family and it's been close to 50 years since I've seen him. To the entire family my sincerest condolences he was truly a unique and memorable person....Janice (Rodnick) Ambrose

Dear Fenchel Family.
The world has lost a wonderful, compassionate and caring man today.
I had the grandest honor of serving the Fenchel Families at Briarwood Country club in the 80's.
I. Kenneth treated me with such kindness, respect and compassion for which I feel molded me into a more honorable and decent man. Each and every time I would see the Fenchel Brothers and their families made me feel so happy. The humor and wisdom each had touched so many lives.
I pray that I. Kenneth did not suffer. We have lost such an amazing human being and forever will he and his family be in my prayers and heart forever!!
With Heartfelt Sympathy,
Gordon Shilkus ~ Philly PA
