Kenny Ken Ken! My brother in arms, Mr Wideback himself! Brother, you have been a blessing in my life for as long as I've known you. You, Tam and the kids are as close as it can get with friends that have become family. You are a man with a heart for your family and it shows in all that you do. Years ago, when I moved to North Carolina and was waiting for my house to be ready, you opened your home and made me feel comfortable. I'll never forget that. Thank you for being with us our special day! Love you, brother.
