Thnx for being a positive male in my life when my dad wasn't around. when I was little I looked to my uncles for that positive male role models, and I always loved hanging out with my uncle Kenney in his garage! I was lucky to have uncles like him.

I wish the King family well. I wasn't around Kenny much at work, however, his kindness was evident. He was one of the good ones.
