"Kenny" was proud of his profession as a machinist, often bringing tooled parts home to show his family. He made parts for airplanes, cars, machines and much more. His hobbies were many. He loved playing the guitar, listening to music of many genres, photography, drawing, painting, gardening, flying model airplanes and race cars. He was an avid reader of all subjects, especially history and sciences. Mostly, he loved reading comics to his grandchildren. We will miss his smiles and laughs, endless funny jokes and willingness to help anyone in need. He was most proud of his family, deeply devoted to them and is dearly missed. A private prayer service is planned for family. Many thanks to the compassionate care givers of Catholic Eldercare and Health Partners Hospice.
