Uncle Kenn's legacy and gift lives on. in the skills he taught his brothers, his son, nephews (and nieces too), the amazing structures his hands built and all apprenticeships gained if you were honored to witness his work. We all can recall a laugh with him as he shared a profound memory or thought with us.
