Kendal’s greatest joy in life were his beloved children and most precious grandsons, Kaden and David Lee. He was always known for going above and beyond to support his children and grandchildren in everything they did, from coaching basketball to caddying on the golf course. His friendships are something he dearly cherished and took every opportunity to help others. Having never met a stranger, Kendal was admired, confided in, and his opinion was always strongly valued.
