Kenny was the life of the party and if there was no party, he created one for us. During his career he often had to travel out of the State, he didn't like that part at all and claimed that he got a bad rash every time he left Florida. Subsequently we had a lot of family vacations at Jacksonville Beach.

Kenny loved everyone and never met a stranger. He would do anything to help and entertain his friends and family. There was no limit to his generosity.

He had a very special place in his heart for all animals and loved his cats. He once even rescued an injured Owl. He was also a rescuer of people, from an elderly neighbor who fell outside her home in the neighborhood to a young woman whose car broke down in the grocery store parking lot.

Kenny was an avid surfer and golfer, and he had a very special group of friends who he loved and cherished and with whom he was able to indulge in another hobby, poker.

He will be greatly missed by all. Kenny thanks for the love and the memories.

In lieu of flowers please consider a donation to First Coast No More Homeless Pets.

A memorial will held in his honor on Saturday August 5, 3:00 P.M. at the Chapel of Corey-Kerlin, 940 Cesery Blvd Jacksonville, Florida 32211
