What a great afternoon I had yesterday at both the funeral and the wake at the ground.
Kenny was a lovely local character, was very funny but always great to have a chat to. I remember my first game back after being ill last year. I was unable to stand up, and sat with him in the first half just chinwagging with him about our various ailments and hospital visits. I thank god for every moment I have spent with him over the 43 years I have been watching Alty, our enjoyable chats and I do not remember seeing him without a smile on his face, ever. I will miss his greeting of Hiya mate, and even though I love this club to bits, Kenny will be sadly missed.
The funeral showed how much he was loved by everybody he knew, we all had our lives made that little bit better by Kenny for having knowing him, that includes me.
I would love the club to give him a permanent honour of some sort, but more than anything else, win the title this season for his memory.
Rest in peace pal, and thanks for coming into my life and making it that much brighter.
