Kenny will be greatly missed. He was truly a great friend. He and I were the official "designated drivers" at all the parties. Even though I haven't seen him in a while, I think of him often. My heart goes out to his family. Please know that Kenny held a special place in the hearts of all his friends. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

My deepest love & sympathy goes out to everyone, his daughters,(which I never knew) Mrs. Althea, Jim, David, George, and his grandchildren. Kenny was a little older than me, but I remember his witty ways, and his kindness. God will take care of you. He was Mrs. Althea's Rock.

It has been a long time since I have seen or talked to Kenny but I remember him as a wonderful man. He dated my mother many years ago and was always there for us. My deepest sympathy goes to his family and especially his daughters and mother. It must be very hard to outlive a child and to go on without a father. though we all know he is in heaven looking down over us and he's in a better place. He will be missed.
