Uncle Kenney was my favorite Uncle! He was an interesting story teller and artist. I loved writing letters to he and Jean and receiving long letters from them. I'm grateful I was able to spend time with him last year!
My sincere condolences to my Aunt Barb and Uncle Manuel, Karen, Gwendolyn and Marzan!
He will be sorely missed. May he Rest In Peace!
