Heaven Is Where I Rest
My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and portion forever. Psalm 73:26
Kenna was a fun and loving person with a big heart. He was always ready to help and use his many talents and skills to be of assistance to anyone in need. At an early age he accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. Whenever his circumstances allowed him, he was a faithful visitor to several community churches with relatives and friends.
He began his early education in the East Baton Rouge Parish School System, and later completed high school in the Sacramento City School District. As he progressed into the work force of adult life, Kenna gained years of valuable job experiences such as, an offshore cook, long haul truck driver, construction laborer, lawn care provider, and a "master handy-man." However, during the Fall of 2025, Kenna faced the diagnosis and challenging treatment for stage 4 lung cancer, sadly Kenna's earthly life ended July 1, 2026.
