Funeral Notice Detail

Kenney was diagnosed with stage 4 liver cancer in January, 2016. My Pops always said that "he was the least of his glorious brothers." He was peacefully transported to Glory with a beam of light. No suffering; just peace. I don't know of any other brothers that God sent an angel to personally escort into glory like he did my Pops. "Wow!" Rest in Heaven Pops. You can finally stop fighting. I love you and miss you TREMENDOUSLY! "Moving right along." Love, Your Shobee
