Gods Garden
God looked around his garden and found an empted place. He then looked down upon earth, and saw your tired face. He put His arms around you, and lifted you to rest.
God's Garden must be beautiful, He always takes the best. He knew you were suffering, he knew that you were in pain. He knew that you would never get well on Earth again. He saw the road was getting rough, and the hills were hard to climb, so He closed your weary eyelids, and whispered "Peace be thine"
It broke our hearts to lose you, but you didn't go alone, for part of us went with you the day God called you home.

When I'm Gone
When I'm gone, release me, let me go. I have so many things to see and do. You mustn't tie yourself to me with tears, be happy that we had those precious years. I gave you my love, you can only guess how much you gave me in happiness. I thank you for the love you have shown, but now it's time I traveled on alone.
So grieve awhile for me, if you must, then let your grief be comforted by trust. It's only for awhile that we must part, so bless the memories within your heart. I won't be far away, for life goes on.
So if you need me call, and I will come. Though you can't see or touch, I'll be near. And if you listen with your heart, you'll hear, all my love around you soft and clear. And then when you must come this way alone, I'll greet you with a smile and say, "Welcome Home"

Kenny and myself
I would give anything to put my arms around him one more time, to tell him how much I love and miss him, try to ease his pain and suffering.

On December 8th,1997 Kenny decided to end his life by his own hand. Although, it wasn't Kenny who made the decision, it was the horrible disease called depression. He had a chemical inbalance in his brain which caused him so much mental anguish. We know he had bouts of depression, but we didn't realize at the time how bad it was.

I will never forget the call from my mother telling me he was gone. No one ever thought he would ever do this. Our family is still in total shock and denial. Why? We have asked our selfs a thousand times. No answers, there are NO answers. He had a sense of humor that was out of this world, and a smile that would make you wonder what he was up to! He could make you laugh till you cried. But then his depression would swoop down and take over.

He loved camping, fishing, barbecuing, all the simple pleasures in life. We will always wonder why, and if there would of been anything else we could of done to help him.

He leaves behind his two daughters, Jamie and Megan, Mom and Dad, my two brothers, Thom and Chris and myself and many friends. Kenny we all love and miss you so much!
