I am so sorry to hear of your great loss. I had only met grandma Kenny several times but thought she was quite a spit-fire. Funny and kind, I believe she made a wonderful impression on all those who crossed her path. She will be missed.

My love and sympathy to the entire Kenny family. I wish I had a chance to tell Gram how much I appreciated her. She was the first Gram I ever had. She made me feel so welcome into the family. I will miss her and I am grateful to have known her.
