I worked with Kenny for 25 years, he was a very good friend and compatriot. As everyone knows he was an amazing craftsman, that put his heart and soul into his craft.

Beneath Kenny's gruff exterior lay a heart of gold yearning to excel at all he did. I never saw Kenny as happy as he was when Vickie and the girls came out to the job, he was so proud.

Thank you Kenny for being my friend, my life is better having you in it.
I Love You Brother
