Special to me. He was always smiling and uplifting someone else. I haven’t seen him in a while but kenny and Karen where always in my thoughts. Karen I will keep you in my prayers. Kenny was the best person I knew. He was a good man.
I worked with Kenny at Olan Mills. He was a great guy, he would help anyone. I know he loved his family and friends.
I know that Kenny went though a lot to kill the cancer, what a strong guy and Karen you are strong lady to go though what you did to fight the fight, and I bet his family did the same.
But God had plan and wanted Kenny to be with him now.
We will surely miss him. Karen I will be praying for you and your family for you to have strength and understanding. love ,Esther
