My thoughts and prayers are with you! At Southern Company I worked with Kenny through many company changes and several career moves. He was a bright and committed employee. I remember one looong Easter weekend when we had a big computer/network outage and Kenny was "on call." We had to get parts from a vendor and everything seemed to move very slowly. I think he slept on the floor a couple nights - - wanting to be there to receive the equipment. It all worked out and he was our hero! Just another day in paradise. He is fondly remembered.

- Patrice Cole, Savannah, GA
