The family would like to thank Hospice for their care of Kenneth. We are so thankful for the prayers, food, friendship and love that have been shown during this grievous time.

Kenneth’s favorite Bible verse was Proverbs 15:1 “A soft answer turneth away wrath; but grievous words stir up anger.”

His favorite saying was “keep the peace”.

He leaves behind a legacy of Christian family values; and a host of family and friends.
