I can remember when I was in high school and my sister Paula had just graduated. Her and I would scrape change up for gas so we could cruise town. Many times we would see Kenny and Tim Rainwater cruising as well! So many fun times and great laughter! He was a great guy and he loved you Melissa! My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family! He feels no pain now and will be watching you from heaven!!

I was blessed to have known Kenneth, he was a friend and brother to many of us. We loved him for his hateful remarks and we loved him for sweet compliments. I know how he loved you Melissa, and he worried about you while he was sick. I never met his children until after his passing but I felt like I already knew them, as well as his dogs and cat that he loved like children. He loved his sports, Tigers and Razorbacks football was his thing. Matter of fact that was the theme of your wedding cake we made you guys wasnt it. He has been missed , and will be missed. I hope he knew that we would help you through your rough days, and step back when needed, forward when asked.I love you Melissa and am so sorry that you and Ken's life had to end so quickly, but like they say God has a plan.Pray that the days ahead, you can find peace.
