We had the privilege of being part of a small group to help celebrate Kenny’s 68th Birthday at a local diner. Huge thanks to our server Mark for helping to make Kenny feel special on this special day. Pictured are Jesse, Kenny, Dara, Malinda, Andrew.
Feasted on meatloaf, pasta, and salad.
Dessert: chocolate mousse cake, carrot cake, apple pie.

Parker’s Barbecue in Greenville, North Carolina. Of course, we fearlessly called up the owners. Callie and husband. They went out of their way to make sure that Jesse could enjoy the best barbecue he ever tasted.
Thank you so much and we could not have made it a better birthday.

After then situation with Kevin in georgetown. Whenn someone is constantly lying. Some ppl put up their own barriers to help. Whereas kenney, we know where to find him all of the time, he close to our home he’s a genuinely kind man and to our knowledge hasn’t tried to deceive us in any way. Always am knd eord ki d when we leave.
The woman who answered the phone was the nicest sweetest most supportive person . She seemed to really want to help instead of just transferrng us to the next resource.
Hana general conversation
