To the family of Kenneth Ray Bell,
Kenny Ray and I became good friends after attending prom together in 1979, our senior year of high school. We were friends for over forty- five years and I have nothing but fond memories of our friendship. From my vantage point, he was an extraordinary individual and he was always a gentleman. He was also kind, thoughtful, funny and compassionate. However, most importantly, he was a man of God.
Your loved one and my good friend will be sorely missed. May you find peace, comfort and the warm embrace of God´s love and protection over your hearts and minds, especially today as you prepare to lay him to rest.
Thinking of you today. God bless you all.
Kenny Ray, rest well my friend!
As you would always say, "Love ya!"
Ms. Donna A. Johnson

My cuzo. We had a amazing ride together. Our times together were always full of laughter and good conversation. You were my lil brother DaBurger. Boy did we love Broncos pizza and raiding Perry's liquor . Our famous and unforgettable Chaka Kahn concert. I could go on and on but the bottom line is my life is a little more empty without you Kenny Ray. Love ya man
