My earliest memories of Kenny was his visit to NH back in the 60, and one of my enjoyable memories was installing a hard wood floor in his Mountain home in Cooperopilis just above the Stanislaus river. He was giver that treated us great when we visited the west coast, another soul taken too young.

Kenny was the older West coast cousin, that we will miss dearly, back in 1974, Myself and my wife and my brother were traveling around the USA after my discharge from the Marines, We unloaded Jerome in Calif where he helped Kenny on the vineyard duties, I would return to Calif. 2X to ride my bike back across the USA, Kenny would pick me up at the airport and I would assemble my bike and be on my way back to NH, In 1988, I returned to Calif. and went to the house in Copperopolis, CA. where I installed a Bruce oak floor, it sat above the dammed up Stanislaus river( not a lake)Lots of fond memories, He was always so pleasant with our family and enjoyed hearing how the East coast family was doing, especially Gloria. To Blane and the family he will be missed, John/ Wendy Riesenberg, and kids
