To Kenny’s Family and Friends,
My introduction to Kenny began when we worked at VanDe Kamp Bakery in Seattle. To others he appeared to be intimidating,I knew underneath he was a teddy bear ready to help and defend his friends or those he felt were treated unjustly. I felt fortunate to be counted amoung his friends. Kenny gave me and others many good memories.
My sincerest sympathy that God chose to take Kenny now. May you find peace that he is at the right hand of God watching out for all of you.
God bless you all.
To Ken’s Family:
I knew Ken for alot of years, I’m Dennis Thoreson’s Brother, He worked with Ken for a long time, and were very good friends.
I’m so sorry to here this news… I know he will be Greatly Missed…
Please accept my most heart felt condolences… God Bless

Hello Cousin Lousie and Sutanya.
I am just writing to let you know that you all are in my prayers.
At a time like this we need it more than anything. Kenny will never be forgotten. Being cousins we may have gotten away from each other because of different paths in life. But truly he will never be forgotten. I remember when he first came to live in Seattle. He stayed with us here in West Seattle. I have a picture of him at my wedding. Kenney gave me away. Since dad had passed. I will never forget the fact he was funny, witty and opinionated.
That was Kenney to me. And I want you all to know that we all loved some Kenny. You stay strong and encouraged in the Lord. Love
cousin Sue.
