“Karen. I have so many wonderful memories of Kenny that it would take me days to write them so I will just share one with you. One night when we were in high school, we decided to go ice skating on Lake Starker in Crapo Park with Gary Hoffman. We drove out to the park in Kenny's 1957 Chev. We were having a great time sliding on the ice and talking to other classmates. That was until Gary broke through the ice and Kenny and I had to pull him out of the lake and take him home.
