Jeanne & Tracey,

I was so sorry to hear about Kenny's death. What an incredible loss for you both. May the Lord give you comfort and peace. He was a great friend to my dad and I have lots of fond memories of "the good old days" when things seemed to be so much simpler (at least for Tracey and me!). Love to you both.

Sending my sympathy. Just read of Kenneth's death in the newspaper. I can remember my father, Harold Wright, speaking fondly of Kenneth who was his cousin twice over.
