I was just thinking about our old Boy Scout days in Troop 122 and decided to look up Kenny. To the McCurtain family, I am terribly sorry to hear this news. Kenny was my tent mate on many scouting trips over several years. We just got along really well. I always looked up to him, not just because he was a couple of years older, but because he was such a naturally gifted athlete– the best in our troop– and funny. I know this note comes late but I had no idea this had happened. God Bless you all.
I know it has been awhile, but I just saw this. I think of you often. Time does not take away the memories, but it does make them easier’I will be 90 in December. I pray you are doing well.
Dear Mr. & Mrs. McCurtain & Danny,
We are so very sorry to hear of the passing of Kenny. We often would come across each other on our buying trips to Sutherlands to pick up materials for our individual projects. Those meetings were thoroughly enjoyed! Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. God Bless.
THE FAMILY OF KENNY HAVE MY HEARTFELT SYMPATHY ON HIS PASSING. I followed Kenny as a young athlete at Forest Park. He was a great friend of all the students in his class. A disciplined young man who dedicated himself to God at an early age .He worked hard at everything he did.As a friend of my son who admired and spoke so often of Kenny and his successes I too knew Kenny was a very special young man. He will be missed by all who knew him.May he rest in peace. I know he sprinted to heaven with his always big smile.
I just learned of Kenny passing, when I saw it posted on someone’s comment on FB. I googled it and found his obituary. I worked with Kenny in 1990 for a few years. He was an elder at our church and had his lawn business. He taught me how to run and take care of equipment and later made me a crew leader. He was the most gracious and appreciative boss I ever worked for. He challenged and thanked me. I am sad to hear of this news, but know that he entered into an Eternal Resting Place.
I am so sorry for your loss of Kenny. I went to school with both Kenny and Danny but really came to know them both around our mutually shared faith in Jesus our Lord.
I know for sure Kenny is around the throne of God praising his savior.
God bless
