My condolences to the family. I worked with 'Yette' for several years and played basketball with him at MPD . One of my fondest memories of him was sitting around '302' (those who know, know) discussing football and listening to him proudly express the love he had for his family.
Gone too soon. I'm gonna miss you brother!

So so sorry for the loss of Kenyette. He was definitely one of a kind. He will be missed by so many but I bet God is glad to have him near him. Terry & Mary Rios
