The End of an Era by Paul Tanck
All Venetians owe a debt of gratitude to our city-by-the sea´s founding father, Abbot Kinney. Kinney debuted his grandiose dream city 104 years ago, and since then the Kinney name has continued to play an important role in the city´s cultural identity.
On January 28th of this year, the passing of Kendrick Kinney, Abbot Kinney´s last remaining grandson, symbolically closed the end of an era for Venice.
Kendrick is survived by his wife of 67 years, Barbara, son Robert (Cathy) and grandchildren Peter Abbot and Anne Marie. The family celebrated Kendrick's life with a burial at sea.
