I want to thank the nurses and doctors at UTK Medical Center on the confront care floor. There is one nurse I met there all I know is his first name is Chris. He treated Kenneth like he was his brother. We let him know that God has given him a good and loving heart. And that we was blessed that we got to know him. And most of all the members of Michael Dunn Foundation. They all were so good to Kenneth. There are so many that I can’t name them all. Thank you again for all that you did for my brother. There is couple of the workers that has a special place in my heart.
With this Covid-19 going on we will not be having a service. The family will be going to Camp ground Cemetery in Reliance to put his ashes beside our mom. This is what he wanted us to do. We are asking that instead of flowers please make donations to the Michael Dunn Foundation in the Knoxville, Harriman, and Rockwood area.
