Jeff,
I am so sorry to hear of your dad's passing. I remember so many great times at your home, from Indian Guides (his bushy hair sticking out of a headband with feathers was a treat), to the pool, to hours of ping pong in the basement, to many New Years eves, and on and on. He was always so kind to me and a genuine friend to my parents, who have also passed away. The world's most phenomenal whistler! Prayers of comfort for you, your mother and sister.

I had the privilege of becoming a friend of Kenny's 20 years ago. So many great memories from the golf course but I have to relate one for posterity. On May 24th 1998 my brother and I watched Kenny make six consecutive putts of over 20 feet at the Elks golf course. To this day I have never witnessed anything like it. Kenny was a wonderful guy and and I will miss him dearly. I am so grateful that I got to visit him a couple months ago when I was in town. Shine on my friend...

Becky, I have such good memories of your mom and dad. They were such wonderful people and so much fun to be around. It saddened me over the past several years as their health deteriorated. You were such a good daughter to them. I'm really surprised that your mom is still alive and that your dad is the one who died. Sending my condolences to you and your family.

Evelyn and The Browning Family,
I was so sorry to hear Kenny had passed away. Wish I had the right words to comfort you during this hurtful time, but of course I don't. Just know my thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.
I was unaware of Kenny's death in time to attend his services. Please accept my apology for not being there to support you in your time of need.
Much Love To All,
Beulah Gayle

I became acquainted with Kenny over 50 years ago while he was at C and E Drugs and remember well his interactions with our daughters as they were toddlers. Over those 50 years we built things, shared many, many rounds of golf, euchre games and bowls of chili.
We swapped labor, stories, and a few "lies" as good friends and golfers are apt to do.
Ken went at every project he undertook with the eye of a professional and he was always willing to help. He spent many hours in that wood shop building for others, such as the porch benches at the Elk's Golf Course, the water houses to hold the coolers and keep the squirrels out of the coolers. He always wanted me to leave him my 3-wood, which he would hit a few times every time we played. a round. I think I will retire it in his honor. Fairways and Greens my good and lasting friend.

I will be forever grateful for Mr. Browning's life because he in part gave me the most generous, loving, funny, uplifting, and supportive best friend I could ever know...his daughter Becky.
I have seen the strength she displays caring for her family and the love and loyalty to her parents. May your father be at peace.

I consider it to have been an honor to know Ken and played golf with him for many years at the Elks. Friend, you will be missed.
