“Dee and Skip, I remember so vividly when Kenneth would come to church with his career path on his hands. He would draw the coolest and most talented artwork on his own hands. My daughter carries his artwork with her everywhere she goes. you are my sister in Christ and i pray over your family. in due time the sweet memories will flood your heart and you will be able to smile at them. I am very sorry for your loss. he was quite a kid i will never forget. Miki/ Heartland”
