Peggy,
I was so saddened to hear of Kenny's passing. I can't imagine what you must be going through. You are in my thoughts and prayers constantly. Take good care.

Frank, Arlene, Lynette, Peggy and all the family,

What fond memories I have of Frank, Arlene, and Kenny at the Uptown Bar way back before it got a liquor license!
Those Thursday Turkey lunches and you always saved a drumstick for me!
I met Kenny in Chicago through Jimmy Burt while Kenny was at Gateway. He was anxious to get back to Mpls, and all of you, after the loss of Jimmy.
He was "reborn" and excited for the future that awaited him working with his Dad.
My prayers and thoughts are with all of you.
We had a lot of laughs and great times over the years. Those memories can never be taken away.
Love,

Doug and Sarah Eichhorn

Dear Peggy-
Please accept my sincere sympathy on the loss of your dear Kenny. I never met him, but through your stories when we worked together I felt as if I did. May your many memories together bring you comfort.
My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I was up at the Uptown on Monday night when I found out that Kenny had passed. He was one of those people that no matter how busy he was he always took the time to say hi. I sure will miss him. My thoughts and prayers are for the many other people that will miss him and of course his family.
