My deepest regards to the family of Kenneth Wines, Sr. at this time of their loss. I will miss Ken greatly. I loved both Ken and Shirley. They were the “salt of the earth.” They had a long love story. So beautiful. I miss them both. May the peace of the Lord be upon them.
To the Wines Family,
My deepest sympathy to all of you wonderful Gentleman that your Mother and father raised. Also, to your extended families.
Shirley and Kennie were as someone stated “the salt of the earth.” They were always so kind to me.
My hope is that Shirley has made dinner for you Dad and Phil stopped over.

We met Kenny & Shirley at a neighborhood yard sale years ago. Such a cute couple. A proud members of LPU 5. Kenny started helping us with plumbing issues in a house we were renovating. Great guy. God bless you.
We met Kennie when my husband and I first moved next door to Kennie and Shirley. Kennie was a kind and incredibly sharp man. I’ll never forget something he once said to me: “You guys have done so much with your yard—that’s hard work. Hard-working people can make it anywhere and be successful.” Those words of encouragement have stayed with me, and I’m forever grateful for his kindness. Today, we learned of his passing while at his estate sale, and my heart is heavy. It brings some comfort knowing he is now reunited with his beloved Shirley in heaven. May they both rest in peace. Our prayers are with their family during this difficult time.
