Not sure what to say?

So sad to find he has "gone on", when I looked him up on the web to contact him for horn info. Met him 25 years ago at a show, saw him several times after that. God bless him in his new home in the Lord...

Dearest Annette and Family:
I'm sure you have realized that "something's missing" from the holiday celebrations...we all have. Kenny's smile...his laugh...his enthusiasm ...just 'him'.
Remember this...though Kenny's gone on to the "Ultimate Celebration ", each time you recall a fond memory of him, his spirit grows deeper in the warmth of your heart!! So, keep his spirit bright thru the warmth of your heart!!!!
Shine on, Kenny Lanovich! You will NEVER be forgotten...always in...

I've known Ken about 30 years and learned lots from him about railroad horns and how to restore them over the years. Ken was a really good guy and I will sorely miss him. And while I had to work yesterday (I am a locomotive engineer) I thought about Ken and his tragically being taken from us way too soon. And if I could do Ken. I'd put one of your favorite horns (Nathan M3H) on my engine and whistle for all the crossings in Evergreen Park. Rest in peace my friend, you will be sorely missed.

Thank you Ken for sharing your interest of trains with the rest of us. Sad to hear of your passing, though I had only been in contact with him a few times prior to 2010 through email.Rest in peace.

God bless you buddy! We had so many good times in the past, I will never forget our hours-long conversations and sharing of recordings, and horn literature. I will see you again someday and we will continue our discussions.
