    Dear Vivian, Robert and loved ones of Winston. I am the youngest Kenny grandchild and wanted to offer my condolences for Winston’s passing. I and my cousins remember Winston as our grandmother’s kind neighbour who graciously invited us to learn from him how maple syrup was made. I can remember helping to collect the sap buckets from the woods behind the property and Winston lifting me up when I was small to show me the sap boiling. Also, we have all enjoyed Vivian and Winston’s delicious pickles over the years. Winston is fondly remembered in all the Kenny grandchildren’s childhoods and we offer our deepest sympathies for his passing.
