We've known Kenny since he became our neighbor(we're at 357) a short while ago, and loved his attitude-mostly joyous, but occasionally frustrated. He made us laugh and brought a smile to our faces. Our heartfelt condolences to Leta and his wide family and many friends. The service was moving, and the talks everyone gave were very meaningful and heartfelt. We too will miss him.
