I'm so sorry to hear of Kenneth's passing. What wonderful times we had working together at Wal-Mart; I can still hear his cute little giggle!
God bless y'all family members. I know that he'll be greatly missed!
I had the pleasure and honor to work for and with Kenneth for almost 20 years. He was always filled with such happiness and a great laugh and a sparkle in his eye. We talked business, of course, but also about the love he had for his land, his favorite old truck which we both loved, and his family of which he was so very proud. Thank you for making my life better, Mr. Koch.
