**Update: Remembering Kenny Stone**

It is with the deepest sorrow and a very heavy heart that I share the devastating news of Kenny Stone's unexpected passing tonight 11/4/24.

The shock and pain of this loss are beyond words. Kenny was a remarkable person who touched the lives of everyone around him, bringing warmth, laughter, and kindness wherever he went. His presence was a gift, and the world is a much darker place without him.


As we try to find comfort in the beautiful memories of the time we shared with him, I ask for your support during this incredibly difficult time. We are working to make the necessary funeral arrangements, and any contribution to help cover these expenses would mean the world to his family and loved ones.

Please keep Kenny, his family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him in your thoughts and prayers.

Rest in peace, my friend. You will forever be in my heart and never be forgotten.

Dear friends, family, and loved ones,

We are heartbroken to share that Kenny Stone is being faced with yet more devastating news. Most recently, he was diagnosed with severe blood clots in his lungs, which, due to existing health issues, are untreatable. This has led us to face the decision that he will be entering palliative care to receive continued care and prepare for the inevitable day.

Kenny has been a source of light, kindness, and strength to all who know him. His warm smile and vibrant personality have left a lasting impact on countless lives, and he has a unique ability to connect with people from all walks of life.

During this incredibly difficult time, we are seeking support to assist with Kenny's care and to help his family navigate the difficulties of this journey. Your generosity will allow them to focus on cherishing their moments with him without the burden of financial concerns.

We deeply appreciate everyone who has reached out with their love and support. Thank you for standing by Kenny and his family during this challenging time.

Dear friends, family, and compassionate strangers,

We are reaching out to you today to support Kenny Stone, who has faced an unimaginable series of health challenges.

On September 1, 2024, Kenny suffered a stroke caused by a brain hemorrhage, which has dramatically altered his life. Following this, he received the devastating diagnoses of lung cancer and a brain tumor.

After being discharged from rehab and making strides recovering from his stroke, he suffered a sudden relapse, landing back in the hospital for the past 10 days, suffering a multitude of various complications, including minor surgery and requiring ongoing wound care without any assistance from at-home nursing care as they have denied the hospital's request for assistance on his behalf.

As Kenny prepares to start radiation therapy for the brain tumor on November 4, 2024, he is also confronting significant financial burdens. With mounting expenses, the situation has become overwhelming. Unfortunately, Kenny is currently waiting for his Social Security/SS disability benefits to kick in, leaving him in a precarious financial position.

We are asking for your support to help cover essential expenses during this critical time. Your generous contributions will go directly towards:

- Prescription medications
- Basic living expenses (rent, utilities, food)
- Unforeseen expenses

Kenny has always been a kind and giving person, and now he needs our help. Every donation, no matter how small, will make a meaningful impact on his journey to recovery.

Please consider donating and sharing this campaign with your network. Together, we can help ease the financial strain on Kenny as he fights this battle.

Thank you for your kindness and support.
