So sorry to hear of Harry's death but happy that he hurts no more! I knew Harry from Senior Friendship Days at the Wilmington Island United Methodist Church. He was always so kind and such a gentleman.

I am saddened today to read of Mr. Kennedy's death yesterday. I only knew him for a short time as a Hospice Savannah volunteer when he was at Marshview. A nicer gentleman it would be hard to find. May he rest in peace. My condolences go out to his wife and all his family and friends.
