A true Catholic gentleman, Kenny was never known to have refused to help anyone. He was an invaluable asset to the Elks, his family, the Our Lady of Lourdes congregation and our community.

We are all poorer for his loss.

Sleep in peace, my Brother. May God rest you and embrace you in his arms.

Rosie, Kenny, Kevin and Katie,

I was shocked and so sad to hear about Big Ken. I will miss running into him when I come home for my short visits. He was such a nice fun and caring person who always made it a point to ask how I and the boys were doing and that will never be forgotten. I was so lucky to have known just a truly "Great Guy".
