Dear Cousin: You and Jennetta have always been a source of love, strength, caring, and even good humor to Sis and me. Quietly, without fanfare, growing together, Ken, you were always the one your brothers, mom and dad, and all of us could count on for anything. Without knowing it, you supported us in every situation I can remember, and you did it all without any reward. Simply put, you were our rock.
Please know that the Browns (Sharon and I and our children), and the O'Hara's (Stella and her family) hope and pray your loss of Jennetta is Heaven's reward. We know that all of our loved ones with Jesus are rejoicing with her now that she is finally at peace, in perfect joy and happiness with them all, forever.
Our deepest sorrows are with you and with all our Arkansas family at her passing, and we hope and pray we will always remember Jennetta in our hearts for all the joy, cheer, and happiness she gave to each of us.
We love you all and wish each of you a speedy healing of all your sadness.
Always in our hearts,
Larry and Stella and Families
