Kenneth went by Kenny with his family and friends. Kenny was a family man that loved his children and grandchildren. He loved to be in the kitchen cooking food for his family; making a big mess that everyone else was going to clean, but we didn’t mind, because everyone knew the food was going to be out of this world … delicious! He was one of the best cooks in the family, and took pride in his food. If you asked to hear a story about Kenny or Uncle Kenny, the first thing you would hear is a story about some kind of fun, crazy adventure he took us on. He did that with every generation. You can ask any of Kenny’s family members, and they will have some kind of story to share with you about him taking them on an adventure. He always made sure that the children around him family or not, was having fun. Then when he had grandchildren, that’s all you were going to hear about! He loved his grandchildren, they were everything to him. Kenny also enjoyed his time outdoors, going camping and fishing. Kenny was a Godly man who led many to Christ. Even in the end he was calling out, “I love You God”. He will be deeply missed by everyone who loved him. We love you Dad Till we meet again, your children: Fern, Kenny and Michelle.
