I hadn't seen the original post; I saw news of Kenny's passing on AOL that morning. Reading the post from "Kenny's people" on the home page does my heart good. It so helps to know that our love for their father and his music has in some way helped to ease their pain. Loss is never easy but I know from experience that it does help some to know that our loved one is also loved by others.
And we all loved Kenny and his music so very much.
