I was so sad when I heard from Mom that Kenneth had passed! It was such a shock! I am Rissie Godsey, and my mom is Vernell Harris, and her sister is Barbara Bryant. Greg is my cousin. I knew Kenneth a LONG time ago, but saw him at grandma and Irenes funeral. We talked quite awhile and it was SO good to see him again. I will never forget that incredible smile!!! He will be missed.
All of you are in my prayers at this time!
