Kenneth had a vast knowledge of anything you could talk to him about. His saying was “I know everything”. He loved the outdoors.

He was loved by his family whom he loved very much as well. He knew and loved the Lord and will be sadly missed until the Lord brings us all home. “We’ll see you soon Kenneth”.
