I will always remember Uncle Kenneth for the love he showed every child in the family and of course, the way he loved to kindly tease those around him. We will miss his sense of humor, his laugh and smile and the love you felt when he was around. We thank him so much for the wonderful memories. We share in your loss.

We pray that god gives each of you strength and we are truly sorry for your loss.

We love you and you are in our thoughts and prayers,

Sheri, Greg, Tasha, Brandon and Camden
