Dearest Sandy, Courtney and Amanda
Our hearts go out to you during this difficult time. We will always cherish the memories we have of Kenny. Kenny touched each and every one of our hearts, he made a difference. Ed worked with Kenny for as long as I can remember, like Ed said, "we were tight, I loved that Chiquito". Kenny was family, our kids loved him and got to know him when he would come over to have Ed work on a one of his cars or just visit with him over a six pack to share stories of family, friends and work. Kenny would always bring my daughter some candy when he came over and ask her if Ed was telling the truth when he and Ed would joke around. Kenny called her on Ed's birthday just to ask how old Ed really was this year, 35 again??? We laughed and joked when she said he is really 53 years old, not 35!! We will miss hearing the Journey ring tones on his cell phone...Ed would answer the phone singing Journey's "Separate Ways" before Kenny even started talking. Thank you Kenny for giving our family so many fun memories and for the friendship you and Ed had over the years. The final wave good night dear friend until.... Rock On with the angels in Heaven. RIP
