To Kenny's family,
Kenny went to South Mountain Junior High when I did! We had big classes at WAHS (1000)! If he was in a "shop" I probably ran into him peddling my sorority donuts since those teachers loved my visits! Who isn't hungry? He was always nice & pleasant. He seems to have a full life filled with many who loved him, the best result of our lives. Prayers & sympathies to the family,
My best,
Barb Follweiler Seitzinger
