"

"Kenny, Some of my earliest memories are of you. I will always remember your laugh and you will forever live in my heart. Love you, Connie"

"To Ken Jr., Cheryl & Fred, Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time."

"And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune Then the piper will lead us to reason. And a new day will dawn for those who stand long And the forest will echo with laughter. I will miss your laughter. Through our good times and bad times we were always there for each other. I will miss your call today "Buddy" You rest now and watch over us. Love you always Cheryl "

"Ken, I know that I haven't seen you in a long time (too long), but you were never far from my thoughts and will always be in my heart and in my memories. We had a lot of good times. My prayers are with you, your friends, and your family during this time of grief. Harry"

"To my cousin Kenny....so many thoughts fill my head when I think of you. The strongest ones are whenever our family would get together and you were there I knew that the event would be filled with fun and laughter...because that was you. I don't think I ever saw you in a bad mood. You were always laughing and making other people laugh. Also, no matter where I saw or how busy you were you always made an effort to come over and talk to me and my family, not only say hello, but talk and out of concern find out how every one is doing. That was you. My strongest memory is when I had two very special people (besides Gram) in my life pass away and go to Heaven you were there for me. That was you. Kenny...you had a heart as big as yourself. Now you are at rest with your Dad and Gram in Heaven. I love you cousin. Tell Gram that I miss her very, very much and love her too. God Bless You Kenny. "

"Dear Ken--I�??m so sorry that you are gone. My prayers are with you. My condolence to Little Ken, Max and all the Stine family. Rest in peace Ken you had a long hard journey, you will be missed God bless you Love, Fran Martin "

"Kenny, You were a very special person always there and ready to give comfort in a lighthearted way, willing to help in any way you could you had a big heart. You will be missed. Love you, Aunt Betty"

"Dad �??Where do I begin? There is just so much that I have to say to you. First, I would just like to thank you for leaving me your name, Kenneth Stine. People respected you. No matter where we were you were so happy to show me off. You were so protective of me when I was young. You were there throughout the hardest times in my life and without you I would be lost. You always walked on the edge but you never crossed that line. I remember going on tour countless times. Those are some things that people don�??t know about and would never understand, but that�??s how we bonded together : ) I wouldn�??t change anything for the world. I had the best childhood ever! I will never forget it dad and I will never forget you, ever. Your grandson, Max, that you love so much, I can tell you now that he will always remember you. I won�??t let him forget. I am so happy that you just went to sleep and dreamed of a better place. So many people are praying for you, you have no idea, or then again, maybe you do. Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin is your song and for the rest of my life I will be reminded of you whenever that song is played. I look at all the stuff you saved before and thought that you were crazy, but it was all your memories and you saved everything I ever made or gave to you. You had such a big heart and enjoyed life to the fullest and I�??m so sorry that it had to come to an end too soon. I�??m wearing your jacket right now and I can smell you. I know you�??re thinking about me because I can feel it. Dad I can go on and on with this. There is just so much to say. I couldn�??t do this without Sarah, Max, Nana, Fred, and Mary, my mother, Aunt Barbara and Uncle Bill, the Browns and all the rest of the family and my friends. I�??m going to miss you dad, see you on the next tour. Get some, Get some�?�Tell pop that I love him. Goodnight, I love you. "

"Ken-So sorry that you had to leave us so soon you will be missed. I thought of you as a nephew, it seemed that whenever I visited the Browns you were there. I remember you as a little devil that was under foot, then as a young man, then young father and a mature man. You had a special place in my heart. Good by�??rest in peace."

"Kenny: Although we haven't seen each other in a good many years I have many fond memories of you. We had so much fun road-tripping it to Myrtle Beach with the kids when they were little. You were an awesome, caring and upbeat person. You were so good to me when my daughter Jordan passed in 2003. Calling to check in with me and sending copies of long-lost photos that you had. Strangely enough, the date you passed was Jordan's Birthday. I hope that means you will be looking out for each other my friend. My heart goes out to all of those who know and love you. You will surely be missed. Love, Sasha"

"Ken - you arelike a brother to me - you are in every memory of my childhood - you will be terribly missed. Love you, Neicy"

"Ken, I have a thousand life-long memories of you. You were a part of our family as far back as I can remember. You were a brother, a friend and your absence leaves a void that will never be filled. You were one of a kind! Love, Virginia"

"Foot loose and care free , truely one of a kind... somehow knew you would crash our wedding , glad you did ...rest in peace kenny."

"Dear Ken, These past 2 years have been so hard on you and the people in your life that loved you. Your playful personality was altered but through it all you would make jokes and make us laugh. I want you know that you have a wonderful son, Kenny Jr. He is a very strong man with a wonderful loving personality. Sarah, is the sweetest young woman and perfect for Kenny and a loving mother to your grandson Max. Don't worry we won't let him forget his grandpa. You loved him so much. Your mother is a wonderful women and loved you unconditionally. Your brother Fred and Mary were your greatest support team - no words can convey how great and caring they were to you and how grateful we are to them. And Cheryl was also such a great support to you. Your other brothers Rick and Bobbie will miss your antics as will the rest of the family. I am so happy that your final resting place will be next to your Grandma Ethel. You and she had a special bond and I know that she is smiling down from Heaven knowing that you will be next to her. Finally, I want you to know that Uncle Bill and I will miss you but we know that you are in the safe and loving arms of Jesus. Sleep well Kenny and God bless you always. Love you, Aunt Barbara and Uncle Bill"

"Kenny, No words can express how much you will be missed by everyone.You were like a younger brother to me.We have so many memories from when Heather and Little Kenny were born,they grew up like brother and sister because we were together all the time. I remeber you and Cheryl came over to babysit and Cheryl's water broke. We were rushing to the hopsital and I thought I would have to deliver her baby in the backseat.Thank goodness we made it on time. You and Cheryl brought a wonderful son into this world and I know you were very proud, as we all are. You were always life of the party but I would get aggrevated at your behavior but then you would always make me laugh. Til we meet again.I know you will keep the party going. I love you and miss you. You left us too soon. God Bless. Love, Sadie"

"Kenny-I think I thought I had two cousin Kenny's when I was growing up since you always seemed to be at the Brown's house and every other important family function. I always remember you telling me, "I knew you when you were in diapers!". I'm very sad to hear that you have passed on. You will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you and the family that you leave behind. "

"I always took for granted I had two cousins named Kenny from Kingston, NY. I can�??t remember a time or family event at the Brown house which did not include you and your zest for enjoying life. And when Kenny, Jr. joined the family, it was only natural, the family love we felt for you was extended to the newest addition of the cousin family. And know that family love includes Sarah and little Max. It has been a privilege to be a part of your life and you a part of mine. I will miss you dearly,... my cousin. "

"Ken, my brother, you were a part of my family for 43 years. We shared so many good times. You left us too soon. You were one of a kind. I will look after Kenny Jr. and Max for you. Rest in peace."

"Kenny, I am going to miss you so much. I knew you were a friend the first time that I met you. I think that was true for so many people. Your personality and kindness were magnets for others. People were naturally drawn to you. I'll never forget the time I was staying with you and needed a coat and tie. You, Bobby and I went shopping in Kingston and then I came back to your house to dress. After I dressed, you called me in for inspection. You inspected my clothes, adjusting the knot of my tie and brushing any little thing you could find off of my coat. That night you grilled steaks and made the best supper! I really appreciated you going to so much trouble for me. You're just that kind of person, Kenny. I`ve haven't lost you, Kenny. You have just gone home ahead of me. Save me a place up there, buddy. You'll be one of the first I look up when I'm called home. Much love and peace always, my friend. Chris "

"We will miss you always"

"Kenny, I will always have fond memories of being at my Aunts and seeing you. You were like another cousin to me. I will always remember you walking through the door with a big smile on your face and giving everyone a big hug and a kiss. I will also always remember skiing with you and watching you ski backwards down the hill, carry on a little conversation and never fall. Amazing! Rest in Peace Ken. XOXO Trish, Mike, Ian and Devin. You will be missed!!!"

"My Dearest Uncle Ken. You are a man full of ambitious character, charm, wittiness, zest for life, and undeniable generosity and love embedded in your soul. Engraved in my mind is the picture of us walking hand in hand in the sunset when I was a toddler, with the obvious expression of the amazing bond that we shared. So many memories we have together. You, me, dad and little Kenny down by the river, of course creating mischief. Hunter Mountain during foliage season�?�you being rebellious�?�me being too conservative. You are a part of all of my memories from my childhood; every birthday, holiday and milestone in my life, you made sure to always be there, and I will be forever grateful. I love you and will miss you so very much, and without a doubt am so thankful and proud to have you as my �??Big�?� uncle Kenny in my life. "

"Dearest Kenny, I've known you since you were younger than my daughter is now, and you were like my pesty little brother. You grew into a warm, personable man. You were always in high spirit, and you had enormous energy. You never just entered a room, you burst in and made a grand entrance. You were more than a friend, you were a part of the family, and you will be forever remembered with a smile and will be greatly missed. "

"Although we lost touch as adults, I have many many childhood memories with you and your family. We always had a great time growing up, it's amazing we did grow up considering all the crazy things we did. "

"Ken - When you died half of me died with you. 100% of my childhood memories include you. I can no longer sit with you and remember the adventures of our childhood. Jumping on a train, swimming in the river, riding on the back of your bicycle while you peddled us to Mt. Marion. Our adventures could fill a novel. I knew your thoughts, I knew your dreams, I knew your fears. I can't think of a childhood memory without you being there. I will always watch after Little Ken and make sure he is ok. He is my nephew as you are my brother. I love you. Ken"

" Brother, You'll be missed but never forgotten. Your life was full, with never a dull moment. I'm going to miss your funny stories & laughter but most of all I'm going to miss the kind of guy you were. " Your head is humming and it won't go In case you don't know The piper's calling you to join him Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow and did you know Your stairway lies on the whispering wind And as we wind down the road Our shadows taller then our soul There walks a lady we all know Who shines white light and wants to show How everything still turns to gold and if you listen very hard the truth will come to you at last When all are one and one is all to be a rock and not to roll" Peace.. Bobby"

"Ken, Although I haven't known you as long as your friends or family, the one thing about you that was so very evident was your love for your son, Ken, and my daughter Sarah. Max will miss those wonderful years of growing up with you as his grandpa, but we will all remind him of how much you loved and cared for him. Rest in peace. God loves you."

"i am so sorry to hear about your father ken i feel so sorry and sad i know how it feels to lost someone that is really special it is so sad to deal with. "

"Ken, I didn't know you as long as the rest of the family, but you made sure I got up to speed real quick! I heard a lot of stories about you before I met you, and then when I met you--son of a gun, I thought, they must all be true! You were a larger-than-life personality, an irresistible tide of fun and laughter, a happy-go-lucky but "I'm there for you" kind of a guy. To say that you will be missed is a tremendous understatement, there are no good words to express the void that we have no choice but to get used to. You've stepped off the rocky road to a place where I have visions of angels with rumpled and bent feather wings--the result of a hearty slap on the back ("Hey Gabriel! How ya doing man?" Whap!) and others rolling in the aisles from the laughter you brought with you. Right on man! Gary Szelc"

"Ken - you were like a third son to me, I have known you since you were six years old, when you jumped through my garage window and jumped on my car. You were always an up, lively person. I am sad for the life that you will no longer have with us. I will miss your smiling up personality. I love you and your son, little Ken, who is like a grandson to me. Your spirit lives on in Little Ken and now in Max. I love you. Ma Brown"

"Ken - My love�?�my sweet, sweet love. Together, you and Cheryl created the love of my life and without him I would�??ve never met you. Boy am I glad I did. You have the most amazing personality and you put a smile on my face whenever you walked in the room. You were not only like a father to me you were one of my closest friends. You are an angel and now you fly with the rest of the great ones. I�??m glad that our son was able to enjoy your presence, even if it was short. You will forever exist in my thoughts, my prayers, my memories and my dreams. I promise that I will take care or your son and grandson to the best of my abilities until the day that we meet again. I pray that you are there, watching over our family and that, although you are at peace, you are still the happy person you have always been. I will miss you Ken, and I am glad I will be able to see you in the eyes of my husband and in my child. You live in them because you have touched them as well as every other person�??s path that you have crossed. Rest in peace my sweet love. "

"I graduated with Kenny. I always like him, he was funny and outgoing. I remember going to visit Bobby and Kenny snapping on us. I remember Kenny having alot of friends in school. My thoughts and prayers are with the family and I am so sorry for your loss. I love you Bobby! Love, Liz"

"Sorry to hear about Kenny. We grew up in the same neighborhood. Our fathers worked together at IBM. Wishing you all peace. Allison, Lee Anne, and Robin (the Finlays)"
