God Bless,Rest in Peace Warrior.....:(

He was just a simple soldier and his ranks are growing thin
But his presence should remind us; we may need his like again,
For when countries are in conflict, then we find the soldier's part
Is to clean up all the troubles that the politicians start.
If we cannot do him honor while he's here to hear the praise,
Then at least let's give him homage at the ending of his days.......:(

Perhaps just a simple headline in the paper that might say:
OUR COUNTRY IS IN MOURNING, FOR A SOLDIER DIED TODAY. (author unknown)

The passing of our soldiers often go unnoticed and unsung by most of the world, remembered only by family and friends. Wish it were not so. May he RIP, his family will be in my thoughts and prayers.........:(

I realize it's a Canadian song,however I believe most appropriate for this occasion...

Services
 
The California memorial for Kenny will be on Friday, Jan. 6 at 2pm at St. Cross Episcopal Church, 1818 Monterey Bl., Hermosa Beach 90254.

There will also be a military funeral at Ft. Bragg sometime in February. His son Steve is coordinating those details with the army - Kenny touched many lives and it will be a significant event, hence the long lead time.
