Cindy and family. I cried yesterday when I heard of Kenny's passing. I've know him all my life and we're less than a month apart in age. I loved it when you and Kenny would come up in the balcony for church service. With me stuck up in the corner running the camera, that's the only time I got to see and visit with him. He's left a great legacy with his Christian life he led on this earth and he WILL be missed by everyone who knew him. I can only imagine the reunion him and his mom and dad are having right now. Love you all and praying for God to give you strength.

I grew up in Knoxville, TN with the Stubbs family. Our families were best of friends. Kenny and his brother Ronnie were my beat friends. My favorite Kenny story was at Olivet Baptist Church where his father, Rev. Stubbs, was preaching our revival. Kenny and I were seated with my Mammaw Huskey. Both knew I was not a Christian, so during the invocation, they both witnessed to me and both walked with me to the alter where I gave my life to Christ. Kenny and my Mammaw are now in heaven.....and so will all Christians in a blink. I will see Kenny again.
