Uncle Kenny

Though I never had the opportunity to meet you, I am proud to call you my uncle. I can’t help but think of what a reunion we will have one day! Mamaw, Papaw, Keith, Denny, Momma, and so many more but most importantly you are resting forever peacefully in the precious arms of our Lord and Savior. Thank you for your service Kenny! “All gave some, some gave all.” Until I finally meet you Kenny, your niece Kristi❤️
