Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
Wes, Would you please give me your email address in case I would like to get in touch with you in the future? I forgot to get it when I gave you mine. The funeral home has not answered my email as to where Kenny is buried and if we go through his town I would like to stop and say goodbye. Do you have that name and area he was buried in? Also, if you have any pictures of Kenny in the last few years would you please scan them and send them to me. He never got around to it and I would appreciate it very much. I sent you an email via Kennys address but not sure if you would ever see that so thought I would ask you here. It was wonderful to ‘meet’ you but sorry it was under such sad circumstances. Thank you for taking the time to talk with me on Sat as you made me feel much better. I miss him so much! Ann Drexelius ann.drexelius@gmail.com
You all have my very deepest sympathy. I am so very sorry to read the obituary of the death of Kenny. In fact, I was shocked today when I opened the Belleville Newspaper that we have delivered here in Caulfield, MO. (We get it several days late.) We lived in the same neighborhood as children, went to college together and have been friends for over 40 years. I only have 2 best male friends and he was one of them. I think it was on the day he passed away that I tried to call him on the phone to chat because I had not heard from him in awhile. All I got was his answering machine. If only I would have called a few weeks earlier maybe I could have been able to talk to him one last time. I thought he was doing a bit better after his last treatment so this has come as quite a shock to me. I am going to miss him so very, very much! It is so hard to believe that I will never be able to talk to him or get emails from him again. I have so many wonderful memories of all the things we did and what a wonderful man he was. He will never be forgotten. My husband, Vince, and I both extend our sympathies to his family. Ann Drexelius HC 63 Box 50-5 Caulfield, MO 65626 email: ald_33@yahoo.com ann.drexelius@gmail.com
