I just want to say that we are very thankful to have known Kenny, he was a big part of our lives. When we were young the camping trips, the skiing trips, the new year celebrations. Then parenthood took over and our time spent together became a lil less. When old age crept in  we were able to regroup; playing cards, games or dinner on Fridays nights ( old people stuff). You will always remain alive within our hearts, thoughts and our memories.  Love you man. 
PLD,
Harry and Lorraine 😘

Kenny,
     Thanks for letting me in the band. 
              Harry,

Dad,
I have wonderful memories of the summers I spent with you as a child. When you coached Charlene’s softball team, we would watch them play and then go to Shakey’s Pizza after to celebrate a win. 
My best memories were when you took me to watch the Angels play baseball at the old stadium. 
What I hold in my heart is our long phone conversations. No matter how much time had gone by, we just picked up where we left off. And every time you answered and I said “Hi Dad” I could hear the happiness in your voice when you said “Hi Babe”
I love you very much and will miss our conversations.
All my love,
Your daughter, Shannon

A true pillar of our family, my father in law Kenny H. Bush always welcomed me with open arms, offering unwavering support and wisdom. Your kindness and love will forever be cherished.  I wish you knew how much I appreciated and loved you. You don’t know how much of an impact you had on me. As your son in law you were like a second father by how you led family life while setting examples all at the same time. You always showed up, and I didn’t thank you enough, but I sure wish I could thank you more than I did, and here is what I’d say:

Thank you for marrying my mother-in-law and having your daughter, now my lovely wife. Thank you for being present for your grandchildren countless days —spoiling them and sending them home.   Thank you for treating your granddaughters in the family like princesses, while gifting your grandsons with endless support.  Your jokes however weren’t close to stand up material but they definitely were entertaining and got the job done.  As I conclude this,  I just want to say thank you again for the endless joy, happiness and laughter you graced us all with time and time again. All of our family vacations, holidays and traditions will never be forgotten and the memories held deep in our hearts.  We love you… 🥇🎼🎼🎤🎶🎵

Uncle Kenny,
One of the  greatest memories I have of my uncle, is he had a Man Cave, with bar, and drums, way before it was cool to have one. He always made me feel welcome, and greeted all with a smile. Now when I hear thunder, it will remind me that my uncle is pounding his drums, saying hello. Never ending set Uncle Kenny!

Here’s to all the great times and memories we all shared with you from the many river trips we took in the RV and the lake trips can’t forget the holidays spent together. I appreciate all the times you put up with me and Chris on the long road trips I know he always had to do something to bug you it definitely was funny at sometimes when you would go back and forth with him it wasn’t a trip if you and Chris didn’t butt heads he sure did know how push your buttons. Just wanted say thank you for everything you would give your all to us make sure things went right and everything was there in the right place to make things go well I’ll miss you Kenny I’ll give Chris a call make sure he keeps the garage clean cause we all know he won’t rest easy I’ll a 7&7 for you maybe even a mudslide your memory will forever live in our hearts.

From the first day I met Kenny, he has always been a unique man with an ability to make everyone feel comfortable. A sense of humor one of a kind. He always call me his favorite daughter in law when I was his only one. I will always remember every trip we made to Laughlin and will cherish every holiday or a just because day we had together as a family. His presence will be deeply missed, but his legacy will live on in our hearts forever....
Love always, your daughter in law Melissa

One of the last cherished memories I have with my grandpa Kenny was at our most recent Christmas party. Where he had fun spirits. Grandpa loved to enjoy the holidays with always raising a glass, cracking jokes and overall have a good time with everyone. He was always known for telling funny jokes and never failed to come with positive energy. His ability to find joy in the smallest things will always be carried with me. He had a heart full of warmth and a constant shoulder to lean on. I will always miss you and love you grandpa. rest in peace ❤️

I have so many wonderful memories of Kenny and everyone always having a great time together! Whether it was poker in the garage, or 4th of July,  Superbowl or just hanging out, Kenny was always making me laugh. He continued to make me laugh with his facebook posts even though we're not around. I will miss him and can't imagine your loss of such a wonderful person! I love you all very much! Jessica also sends her love 💗

Sitting here writing memories is the most surreal feeling. I’m in disbelief and heartbroken. We tend to see death around us, but to experience it when it’s so close is the most gut wrenching feeling. Trying to navigate life without will be a haunting task for all of us, especially me. I have so many memories with you that I’ll keep close to my heart. I am just so thankful you were present in all my babies lives. From soccer, award ceremonies, recitals, school functions, and lots and lots of baseball. I will always cherish your presence. Amelia asked me why you didn’t take your shoes with you to heaven. We just miss you and it’s only day 6. Thank you for loving my family so much and investing in a scooter just so you could be more present. Your personality was the best. I would give anything to hear an insulting comment from you right about now or even a Dad joke. Please guide us and watch over us. We’ll take care of Mom. I love you very much and I promise to continue to take you along . Until we meet again….❤️

Grandpa was a really funny person. One memory that I remember was him on thanksgiving day, talking about some weird
stuff that everyone laughed. I wish I had him for a little bit longer. I loved him very much.

To my hubby of 49+ years. I miss you Soo much, as I sit here I'm thinking of all the fun places we went to together. Some places you didn't care go, but you did it for me.  There were lots of times he would catch me watching the cooking channel and he  would make a comment.. Oh Boy! I'm in trouble.. Cuz he knew he was gonna be my taster.. Some recipes I made were just terrible, but he would never tell me that, he would say Oh. Do I have to.. Thank you BABE for making me happy.

I love grandpa so much. He likes taking care of me and he’s funny. He’s always nice to me and sometimes he plays with me and he doesn’t actually just watch TV.  I want grandpa back and I love him. 
                                     Love, Amelia

Grandpa was so funny, nice, and kind. He was funny because he used to ride his scooter with me and I would always go ahead of him cause he was so slow. He’s nice because when I would get hurt, he would help me and give me a band aid.  I loved traveling with him. I will miss him and riding the scooter in the Pechanga hallways.
                          Love, Diego

We are going to miss Kenneth very much, especially when I would read his sarcasm funny jokes he would put out there, and of course I would respond. He was a funny guy in his own way, and sometimes kinda quiet too. Kenneth was the nicest guy you could ever meet. Kenneth I'm going to miss you and your sarcasm jokes, I only wished they had texting so you can continue to texts you funny jokes. R.I.P Kenneth.

I was deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Kenny.  Please accept my sincere condolence during this incredible difficult time.
I can not express the depth of my sorrow for your loss. Kenny,  was a truly special person who touched the lives of everyone who knew him. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family as you all navigate through the challenging period. If there's anything I can do to support you, please do not hesitate to reach out to me.
He'll be miss, but Kenny will never be forgotten.
R. I. P. Kenny, spread your wings and fly high with the angels to eternity.

With deepest sympathy, 
Dorothy Jimenez

There are special people in our lives who never leave us, and Kenny was one of them. Even after he's gone.” “I do not remember days, I myself only remember moments with Kenny.

I've known Kenny for 20 years or so, And he's still made me laugh all those year's. It's the things he would tell me. Even though he wasn't soft spoken, he was pretty loud where everyone could actually hear him pretty good😂 Because sometimes he would tell me did you hear me? And I would just laugh and say of course I could😅
Kenny, had a good sense of humor and his character was different in many good ways. And boy did he love his "wife's" Charleens cooking👉during the holidays. 

I've always had fun being around Kenny, and his family, Whether it's on vacation or just going down to their home to celebrating a special occasion or holidays. It was just always enjoyable being around Kenny and his family.

I will enjoy a lifetime of missing Kenny, with all the memories that I have and
the privilege of knowing and loving him for who he was. 

“The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched, they must be felt with the heart.”

Kenny, you are gone from our sight, but never from our HEARTS❤
So spread your wings and fly high with the Angels to Eternity ✨💫

Rest in peace🙏, my friend

My grandpa was a very funny person and I loved him so much. I remember when me and my cousins would play tag around the house and our grandma would yell at us to go and play outside🤣.He was a good guy and always knew how to put a smile on all of our faces just too see us happy. I know that he is in good hands now and even though he isn't here with us in person, his spirit will always be with all of us no matter where we are or we're we are going. I pray in Jesus name that he is safe, rest in peace grandpa.       Love Bella

There are so many memories with you Dad. I will mention a funny get in trouble one.. growing up when my parents would go to work I would have my neighbor friend Matt come over but they wanted nobody in the house, but as long as I made it look presentable it was okay. From 9:00am till about 12:30ish during the summer break was the open time frame.. he used to always bring the beer truck home after his route but u could hear it coming so then Matt would just go out the door and hop the fence and that’s that.. my Dad took the 3rd street from the house and went around and as I’m making French toast and bacon and watching the price is right with Matt and another neighbor here he comes through the door…😂 got me good.. 
but a proud moment was my 40th when I asked for the band to have some live music in the driveway, and I got to do what I’ve always wanted to do since I was a little kid and that was to sing a song with him behind the drums and we did!! It was so much fun (gimme 3 steps) and then that’s when I new that they never needed Jeff after all.. hahaha just joking but I loved when they would have practice on a Friday night cause it always put him in a good mood.. February 9rh was the day the music died but I’ll always remember those moments.. He was a great man, no crime, never even been pulled over before, nothing extreme, drive slow, that was my Dad… and always had the cool head of hair.. hopefully the Bush name continues there’s only 4 people that can make that happen. Sean, Chris, Ethan, and Isaiah.. cross your fingers Dad.. 
gonna miss not being able to talk to you, but I will keep all the memories with me.. I love you Dad (and when it’s time I don’t know if I’ll be in heaven but if I’m not I’ll be downstairs come and find me.. 😂😂❤️love always your middle child Jason

I missed when my grandpa would come to games any day he could and I play my ass off as much as I could. One time in All stars I hit a home run and my grandpa distracted my mom so she couldn't record it. And so my at bat she was recording and my grandpa tried distracting her again and he goes "it's okay he wont do it again" and two pitches later I hit another home run and everyone was screaming and my grandpa was in disbelief. My grandpa was easily the most funniest grandpa and will never forget the jokes and laughs he gave everyone. Thank you for welcoming my girlfriend into the family with opened arms and it really made her feel comfortable with you guys. I will always love and miss you grandpa.
Love, your grandson ethan

I will always cherish my memories of the millions of card games we played in your garage and at Tom & Gingers. Kenny was  always guaranteed to make me laugh. It was the funnest nickel and dime gambling I have ever done. I also loved watching him play drums with his band. I always told him his playing was “Smooth as Butter”. I’m gonna miss you tremendously Kenny. You will forever be in my heart.

Growing up I spent alot of my time at Aunt Charlene's and Uncle Kenny's.  I have so many great childhood memories whether it be Uncle Kenny playing music in the garage with his band, cleaning the leaves off his yard, yelling hi to him as I walk into the house passing the garage with him sitting on the stool watching tv on that tiny TV and him never hearing me, him always having a unlit cigarette in his mouth, playing Bingo at St John of God carnival or my mom calling him "Kitty Kitty". Everyone who has a Facebook knows the past few years Uncle Kenny loved him some Facebook. I can literally go on my page and he has left a comment on almost all my post. Most being silly "dad jokes" or just a sweet message showing his love. I will forever cherish and be grateful for the memories and silly facebook comments. He will be missed. Sending all my love to Aunt Charlene and the family.

I have so many childhood memories of Uncle Kenny.  Him playing his drums in his garage with all his buddies jamming to the best songs. He always had a funny joke to say or comment to make. I remember him and my parents playing cards in their garage while all the cousins ran wild creating the best memories. It's always been Uncle Kenny and Aunt Charlene ❤️ I'm so sad he's no longer with us. 
My prayers are with my Aunt Charlene, Sean, Shannon, Jason, Lora and Chris and all his grand babies. 🙏🏽  He will be very missed

My dad always had a candy bar waiting for me  when he picked me up from middle school in his white convertible. It was always skittles or a snicker bar. If he didn’t, we would always stop at the dairy on the way home ❤️

Kenny was such a wonderful husband, father and friend. He loved his family and friends unconditionally and always wanted the best for everyone.

He always sent me funny jokes weekly that made me laugh and it seemed that he knew when I was down or just needed that extra something.
I send my Love in Prayers to my Bestie Charlene and her amazing family, Jason, Lora and Chris and their families. Kenny will truly be missed and forever in our hearts♥️
