I love you man, I will miss every joke you made and every smile you have given us. I hope you are looking down on us and laughing at our crazy things we do to remember you by. You were a gift to everyone, and im grateful to even know you, and even more being your friend.

To Wayne and Lucy, Jolene and I share in your loss today. You are both in our prayers. To be absent our bodies is to present with our Lord. May you both find strength in the days ahead. Know that we miss and love you both.

Rest In Peace, Kenny. From the 7 years of scouting seeing you become the man you always wanted to be. As I attend Mass every week, I see your Eagle Scout project I helped with. I will keep you in my prayers and pray you bless those you care about.
