We are so sorry for your loss. Kenny was a wonderful man who always knew how to make us laugh.
Our family is so grateful for his care of Aunt Mable. Words cannot express how much he meant to her and to our entire family.
His humor and smile will be dearly missed.

Angie, Pete, John and all of the others,
You know that over the past couple of years I have become very close to your father because of my mother. It will be hard to not go over there and have your Dad make ornery little comments. I used to ask him all the time what he put in his Wheaties that day. I will miss calling on the phone and having him play Jesus Loves Me on the computer. I used to tell him all the time, I know Jesus loves me, but he likes you best, Right? That always made him laugh and he would say I think he likes us all the same. It will be a hard adjustment for all who knew him. He is in a better place now, and he went the way he wanted to. We will miss him.
