Aunt Lois, Ricky, Wayne & Judy,

Your families are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. I remember, with a smile, the fun times Kenney and I had during my visits to Gentilly on Nighthart Street, when we were kids. Those times are special to me. I'm getting forgetful, but believe it or not, I still remember the Gentilly phone number of CH-2-1297 (the only old phone number I can recall). I guess because I called it so often back then to talk with Kenney. I hope that your families will be able to find comfort in remembering the good times they shared with Kenney. Please give my condolences and sympathy to all who loved him. Love, Kathie

There are no words to say how very sorry we are. Kenny was our dear friend that will never be replaced. We had countless nights of laughter, jazz fests, seafood boils or just him coming next door for dinner. Kenny always had that bottle of Fetzer and we always knew about it the next morning! We laughed. We joked. Kenny was truly an amazing friend. A friend that will never be able to be replaced. Our hearts are so saddened to know we will never be able to sit with you in the backyard, watching TV and talking about everything. Kenny Mock, you taught us how to enjoy life to the fullest and have fun. You were one heck of a teacher and we took plenty of notes. I promise to have a glass of red wine just for you! Our hearts are heavy with sorry, but know that we will always love you dearly and miss you even more.
You're knowledge in the Construction industry is un-matched, your wit about life was untouchable and your zest to enjoy everyone around you touched each of us and inspired us more.
We love you.
