Uncle Kenny was such a huge part of my younger years, Such a god man and he will be missed

Grew up in Swampscott with Ken. I remember some of his sayings. We did a lot of things together in our group. Swimming, tennis, baseball, beach. He said "myist all Cretity" ever so often. Lost track of him after Janice.
