Vietnam as a gunner on a Huey helicopter. Kenny
was a member of the Waynesville United Methodist
Church and the Early V8 Ford Club of Bloomington.
Retired from Caterpillar in Decatur where he worked
as a millwright, Kenny rarely missed an auction. A

his stock on an episode of American Pickers in 2008.
He also enjoyed going to dirt-track races at Farmer
City and Fairbury.
Memorials in his memory may be made to the
Waynesville United Methodist Church, Humane Society
of Logan County or DeWitt County Animal Shelter.
Final arrangements are entrusted with Quiram-Peasley
Funeral Home of Atlanta.
