I am sorry that I am hearing about this a few days to late. I would have come to the funeral. I am so sorry for your loss. Kenny was one of the good one's. I have some found memories of Kenny back from Highschool and just out of Highschool. I played most of the sports in P-ville, but always thought of Tenis as a girly sport etc.. Typical joc thinking. It wasnt until Kenny asked me to play that I realized just how tough this game was. We played alot and he was amazing at it. Talk about a work out, he would run me all over the place. I got pretty good at it pretty quick playing with Kenny. I now have a whole new outlook on Tennis. Like I said above, he was a good one and will be missed... Prayers sent up for you and your family in this time of need.Nickie Spassky (Tiet)
Kenny was one of my crushes at school. He was a great guy. That's why I liked him. I remember hanging out in the creek with him and Mike Delgado. Kenny fell and a branch stabbed his thigh pretty deep. Mike carried him all the way back to his house and told his parents.Life sucks when we loose one of the good ones...and Kenny was one of the good ones. My heart goes out to his family and everyone who loved him. Rest in peace, Kenny.

Kenny Bounds was my across the street neighbor for over 15 years! He was a great guy and I am glad I was able to call him my friend. I remember the time my daddy and I had a fight and I dumped a 32 oz cup of Dr. Pepper on his head. I ran out of my house, across the street, into his house (without knocking), ran up the stairs and hid in his sister, Kendra's closet. I could hear my daddy yelling my name outside!! I looked up and Kenny's WHOLE family was looking into the close through the door trying to figure out what the heck was going on! Kenny laughed so hard he was rolling on the ground! That's the kind of family he had. One that left their doors open and welcomed us all in. He had an AMAZING laugh and an UNFORGETTABLE smile. I was sadden to hear of his passing.
