I met Kenny 54 years ago. i can't ever remember seeing him angry in all the years I knew him.He was always there for anyone who needed him. He helped me numerous times. He would drop everything he was doing and come by to help.He will be greatly missed by me and and anyone who ever knew him. Even when he knew the inevitable was coming, he looked it straight in the face and accepted his fate.He was a great man in my eyes. He suffered so much. He was a brave, courageous and loving man. I will never forget you. I was lucky to have known you all these years as a friend and brother. Your friend Dave Sena
