Kenz and I met when we were little kids playing lightening soccer. She was so fun, happy, friendly, outgoing, and kind (the list could easily continue). A few years later I was so excited to go to Richmond Middle School and finally be friends with Mackenzie Knights. She had a heart of gold and everyone who met her could see that instantly. Kenz is the most generous and loving person I’ve ever known. She would make lunch platters for everyone by the pool on a beautiful summer day, cook extravagant dinners before a party, and bake cookies for random occasions. She loved cooking and baking, but she also loved bringing people together. She spread happiness wherever she went, despite what she may have been going through internally. Words cannot fully describe how wonderful of a person she was. I will always remember Kenzie as resilient, compassionate, generous, and KIND. My thoughts and deepest condolences are with her family and loved ones during this extremely difficult time.
