Title: Kenny AKA Surfrocket...
Post by: ped579 on January 18, 2014, 03:24:24 PM
I just reads on FB that Ken BigFish Jelnicki  passed away.  Those that know him knew he had some physical problems but nothing like this.

Rest In Peace My Friend...

So true.  Ken was a good friend.  I just messaged his sister to let me know the particulars for the viewing.

Complete shame for a man with so much talent and ability. Came to know Kenny over the past year and a half through the business and his boss who is a mutual friend from the prison system. He loved his daughter so much and truly cared for others. The message his boss received was he passed in his sleep last night. He and I were on FB into the night last night  and then I saw this when I returned from the fishing flea market....Very sad to hear. Rest in Peace my friend, calm seas for you......

His mother live in my family Mobile Park and if I am not mistaken, he was staying with her when he passed.

RIP Kenny
You will be missed out there on the beach.

A few pictures of Kenny helping others get into the toothy critters from one of the NJSWF Sharks in the Surf nights he organized.
Kenny was always willing to help others despite his own troubles.  And he loved helping others hook up with fish.
