Not sure what to say?

Just finding out about Kennan a few days ago. What a shock and he's been gone 3 years. We lived in Virginia Beach Va, at the same time and he briefly lived with me in Norfolk Va, and in Manhattan, in the early 90s, had some great memories that I'll always cherish. I still to this day smile or laugh about the times we share. A great loss a very talented man and incredible wit. May he rest in peace.

Kennan was a great guy. He used to play his guitar and sing Pogues songs for everyone at his old apartment off Birdneck Rd. Everyone always loved Kennan.

I spent a lot of time with Kennen doing a play he directed in NY. He was an incredibly talented, creative and inspiring person. I remember him fondly and I looked up to him as an artist. I am so very saddened that he passed so young. My heart goes out to Nina and all their family.

Carolyn, I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your son. It sounds like he was an amazing and talented man.

Kennan never failed to make me smile and laugh through his fun antics when he came to my home in Virginia Beach to visit my daughter, Melissa Darling, more than thirty years ago. I was fortunate to have spent time with him and his beautiful partner, Nina, when I visited New York over these many years. He was so loved for his many talents and unique sense of humor. My sincere condolences are sent to Nina and Kennan's family and friends.

I have warm memories of Kennan from our high school theater days. I am so saddened by his death. I have been moved by the outpouring of love for him from our high school theater community/group. He made such an impact on everyone. My deepest condolences to his family and Nina.
