Kenny and Eileen are some of the most amazing folks I have ever had the pleasure to meet. Welcomed me in with open arms and I learned so much about frankly everything. You were great for me to get to know at a time in my life that it was needed. I remember getting to drive the old IH back from the hay field to the farm and feeling so proud!!! Thanks Kenny and the fried rabbit at the end of the day by Eileen was some of the best dinner I have ever had. I was blessed to have met you. Those times at the farm were some of my best memories. Helped mold me into who I am today. Good honest hard working people. I want to tell you thanks!!!
