Kenny I remember as if it was yesterday when aunt Vera brought you home and when she brought you to Mama's house(mama Lillie) I was 5 yrs old. I said "can I have this baby? I want this baby. Can he stay with me?" Everyone laughed. I was so serious though and I cried. Next thing I know we were living together. We were surrounded by family. Your mother I loved her very much. Eventhough, I am your cousin, I never saw or viewed you as a cousin. You were always my little brother. As I sit here in retrospect reminiscing of our childhood I remember your smiles and your innocence. I loved you and I know you loved me. Kenny about a year ago we had a phone conversation and you said to me "sis, whenever one of us got into trouble and it was switch time , I took your spankins and you took mine" and we both agreed and started laughing. There was so much fun times and family times. We were blessed. I can't help but feel an overwhelming feeling of sadness that broke my heart to hear that you have transitioned from this earth. Kenny lil brother I know you wouldn't want to see me hurting I just need time. You are gone and never will be forgotten. I love you brother. Until we meet again. I pray God have mercy on your soul.
Your sister
