Not sure what to say?

I was a pca at Yadkin nursing center and I’d like to say my condolences to his family and friends and I will miss u pops u was a sweet heart and going to work won’t be the same without u there but until we meet again! ❤

I have been james(pops) cna for the past few months. We had some good times and he will be greatly missed. I know he is in a better place and pain free, but i sure do miss seeing my pops when i come into work. Like i told him it's not goodbye, it's I'll see you later pops. We love you pops and will see you again one day.

James was such a sweet man! I've only known him a short while at the nursing home, but still felt a connection with him. You all will be in our thoughts and prayers

So sorry Bo and Jeff and extended family for your loss. I always enjoyed seeing Mr. Kennedy at his grandchildren's ballgame. He always had a smile on his face and enjoyed being there. Glad he is getting a new body and no more pain. Rest easy my friend.

It made me so sad to read of Mr. Kennedy's passing. I visited with him often when I went to see my mother, Katie Davis, at Yadkin Nursing. He always had a smile; such a delightful man. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this time.
