My Dearest Friend Krazy Kenny, Your storm is over and you can now rest until our new Heaven is built here on earth.

A good name is better than precious ointment; and the day of death than the day of one's birth."
Ecclesiastes 7:1

To Teri and the family as we celebrate my dearest friends life know that he is loudly laughing and happily at peace.

Praise be to God,
We were deeply saddened when the news came that it could be a matter of time for for the sudden passing of Jr.'s cousin Kenney. Our hearts are filled with sympathy for the unbelief shock and grief we all are suffering today. I know mom and everyone will miss him so very, very much. A loved one that has finished their life on earth is not dead, there life has just began. They are still with us in spirit. That you must believe. Memory can tell us only what we were, In company with those we loved; It cannot help us find out what each of us, Alone, must now become. God saw him getting tired, When a cure was not to be. So He wrapped his arms around him, and whispered, "Come home now to me". When we lose someone we love, The loss seems too great to bear, God sends us friends to comfort us, To show that He deeply cares. Keep the faith, hold on, be strong and prepare to meet him again someday on the other end.
With Luv, God bless! Rest in Peace!

Kenny was a great person to work with. He made a lasting impression and we were all looking forward to his returning to work. Always enthusiastic, he could brighten the day with a smile and some well chosen words.
