All these years knowing Mr. Kenny neither Bret nor I ever knew his name was Quentin. My condolences Mrs. Mary as you give your love back to God.
Bret was so fond of Mr. Kenny and you too Mrs. Mary. He was oh so joyful when he walked back home after a visit to yals home telling me everything. He is a bit much how you say lost, maybe. So thankful and blessed we feel sharing life’s stories and fellowship with each of you. Bret’s life was made much easier and richer by yals acceptance of his disability and for all the visits over the many years. I hope Bret was never a burden. And now I’m asking Father God, please wrap Your loving caring arms around Mrs. Mary and the family as they mourn Mr. Kenny’s passing from us to You, sending Your comfort and peace during this difficult time, in Your precious Son Jesus name, Amen. Farewell Mr. Kenny and if you’re not to busy doing The Father’s work, send a little note every now and then to God asking Him to watch over Bret’s garden, wellbeing and mind because he won’t have you to consult with anymore.
I’m going to miss seeing you on your front porch smiling and waving as we pass. Until we meet again in heaven

Mrs.Mary: I am so very sorry to learn of Kenny’s passing. I thought very highly of him as a Man /Boss / Friend. He was the best boss I have ever worked for. Praying for all of your families.
