I knew Kenny practically all my life. We went to grade school and high school together. He was always the big quiet guy. I would see him around town every now and then. He was one of the few guys left who still called me Jimmy. Sad to see him leave us so early.

Kenny always lived a couple of blocks north of me, but will always remember that he and I were always paired together in 8th grade gym class for wrestling. He liked to wrestle and I didn't and our matches were the shortest ever. Imagine that. Very nice person and my deepest sympathies to his family.
