August 17, 2020 May God bless and comfort Kenny's family with loving memories. I have good memories of him back as far as elementary school. Kenny was such a cute kid and so nice. It sounds like he never changed.
~ Judy Allen August 18, 2020 Haven’t seen Kenny since '66, but we were good friends, lived a block from one another, and went to Walter Reed ES and HS together. I remember his brother, sister, and parents as a wonderful, kind family. I am sorry we have lost Kenny, and I send my sincere condolences to his family.

Onward Christian Soldiers
Words by Sabine
Baring Gould in Church Times, 1865
Music (St. Gertrude) by Arthur S. Sullivan, 1871
Onward Christian soldiers,
Marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before!
Christ, the royal Master,
Leads against the foe;
Forward into battle,
See His banner go!
Chorus:
Onward, Christian soldiers,
Marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before!
2. At the sign of triumph
Satan's host doth flee;
On, then, Christian soldiers,
On to victory!
Hell's foundation quiver
At the shout of praise;
Brothers, lift your voices,
Loud your anthems raise!
Chorus:
3. Like a mighty army
Moves the church of God;
Brothers, we are treading
Where the saints have trod;
We are not divided;
All one body we
One in hope and doctrine,
One in charity.
Chorus:
4. Onward, then, ye people,
Join our happy throng,
Blend with ours your voices
In the triumph song;
Glory, laud, and Honor,
Unto Christ the King;
This thro' countless ages
Men and angels sing.
Chorus:
