So sorry for your loss. Thinking of you and your family. 🙏
RIP Kenny.
he was always the pitcher (and a good one at that) of our intramural softball games.
Kenny had a very pleasant personality and always a smile. RIP Kenny.
Like another writer here, I was a classmate of Kenny’s at Helias. In PE we had this game that everybody else calls Dodge Ball but we called it Battle Ball. Just the thing for high energy boys. Kenny was good at it; had a great arm and was quick on the court too. He was always pleasant to be around, got along with everyone. Sincere condolences to those that loved him. RIP, Kenny.
