Pastor Mike and Karen Percell
Kenny has been one of our closest friend for many years. Kenny and my mother Freda Stephenson Percell grew up together and graduated together at Wheelersburg High School. The years that I served as a staff Pastor allowed Karen and me to spend wonderful times with Kenny and Sarah at their home. When Sarah passed away Kenny lost his best fried. We spent many days with Kenny extending our love and support with his loss. There is so much I could write about this outstanding Christian man but, I will just say we lost a great friend. Our prayers are with Kenny's family. Pastor Mike and Karen Percell Badenton,Florida
