My friend, Kenny. I have know him since the late 70's. We worked together at 7up bottling company. Then he went to Pepsi cola. Then became independent owner of his own Sara Lee truck and route. He was a quiet man, with a kind heart. He was friends with myself and two other sisters. We use to go to the Keg in Beaumont. Had such good fun hanging out. He will always have a place in my heart. Rest in Peace my friend. God s comfort to his family. We loved him.
