Jeff Armentrout wrote a sympathy message

“From serving in the Marines, to retiring from the WVSP; Kenny was one of those people that never knew a stranger. He was a loving husband, father, and as i called him a cousin. Growing up near each other, being the only 2 guys surrounded by all female cousins......we were always the ones that seemed to be in trouble. I am glad that i was able to be his partner in crime. You will be always missed and adored. Rest easy.”
