Kenny will be remembered for his quiet demeanor and smile. While he spoke softly, he often left us laughing with his sense of humor. He was the master chef at back yard barbecues which he loved to do as much as we enjoyed them. He will always be in our hearts.

As it was Kenny’s wish, cremation rites have been accorded and interment will take place at Queen of Heaven Cemetery, Hillside, IL, at a later date.
