Kenny,

You will be missed. It was so great to see you and talk with you when you were over Aunt Shirleys or doing work for others in her development. You helped her so much and did many things for her as well as others. She mourns your loss as well. She said you were always so good to her. ❤ No matter your health or what you were going through, you pressed forward. May you enjoy your new heavenly home, free of pain and with Aunt Marie, Barbara, Tommy and many other family members.
