I met Kenny back in the ‘80’s when we felt we ruled the world and held it in our hands. No worries. Kenny had a way of making you feel in the moment. And he’d fill as many moments as he could with laughs. He had a generous heart and a kindness about him that made him memorable. When I saw him after life had handed out a few bumps and bruises to us both, he STILL had a way of lightening things up. Family meant a lot to him and I know his family loved him fiercely. May that love carry you all through this difficult time.
