It's going to be hard, moving forward one step at a time, one day .. The Leeman family is strong and will get though this.
Uncle Kenny, I still hate those nasty cabbage/onion things you tricked me into eating "right out of the garden".

Our Uncle Kenny will be missed. Besides being my uncle and God father, he was like my Dad after mine passed. It was an honor having them for my neighbors for years. Many memories fishing, or having fires in the pit we made together dragging this big ring with the old blue tractor. And him tricking me into eating this nasty onion/ cabbage thing from his garden. Always kind, looking out for Aunt Beaty till his last day. Sitting by him Tuesday, he whispered he hated to leave her alone. I patted his arm and said she will be OK...one day at a time.
