Scribner, NE Thursday, January 18, 2024 Kenny was such a great guy. The Sunday morning Scribner golf guys sure enjoyed breakfast at Adies every week, and that steak sandwich was wonderful for an evening meal! My sympathy to Ricky and the whole family. God's blessings to all of the family!Coleen Denton
Oakland, NE Wednesday, January 17, 2024 Loved working with Kenny and especially loved all of his stories. My favorite was about growing up neighbors to Dorthy Lynch and being left at the Burwell Rodeo by her uncle. Thanks for the memories.LEANNE L Freeman Besmer
