Thanks for your friendship, Kenny What a wonderful person! Gary Miller

Oh Kenny O! Thank you for your musical guidance and inspiration from my childhood through my adult life. I´ll never forget your kindness and support. So grateful you played my moms 80 birthday party with me! Sending love to all your family.

Kenny was like an uncle to me. He played music off & on with my dad Jack for years, and whenever they were together, the jokes were endless. Kenny sang at my wedding as a wedding gift. And when I asked him if he'd be able to sing at my mom's funeral, he said yes before I even got all the words out. I last saw him at my one of dad's birthday parties, & he was his usual kind & funny self. He was very special to our whole family & I loved him.

Wonderful and talented colleague in the Midcontinental Chapter of the Medical Library Association - plus the time his Greek band played at our local Orthodox church's Greek Festival in Cheyenne one year.

Kenny was such a dear & thoughtful person. We shared much time together in the library network. I'm still a librarian at College of Saint Mary, just down the street from Bergan Mercy Medical Center. He would sometimes stop by so I could put an interlibrary loan book in his hand for one of the Bergan Mercy borrowers. It gave us a chance to visit & went faster than "Snail Mail." I learned many things about life from Kenny & it was always a joy to see him. Musical & generous of heart & soul till...

One of my favorite MOBY riders. Amazing man. Big heart.

We are so sorry about the loss of Kenny. He was a sweet, warm, caring person who always had a smile on his face. Fen & Tyler, sorry . Paula Kacin and Family
