    Kenny was THE ONLY HOUSEKEEPER that spent and I mean SPENT a lot of time during his workday, in the Respiratory Care @ the hospital. He was always welcome to our Eat -Inâ??s and he took advantage of it. We ALL will miss him. He no longer need to talk or worry about his CPAP equipment or the coming company that serviced him. Heâ??s RESTING IN PEACE! May God rest his Soul.
