It is with profound sadness and heavy hearts that we share the heartbreaking news of the untimely passing of our dear friend and colleague, Kenny Chizewick, affectionately known by all as “Little Kenny.” His sudden departure has left an immeasurable void—not only in our hearts but also in the very spirit of our workplace here at Eddie’s O’Briens Grille & Bar.
A Beloved Member of Our Family
Little Kenny wasn’t just an employee—he was the heartbeat of Eddie’s. With his signature smile, quick wit, and boundless warmth, he brought a special kind of joy to every shift, every guest interaction, and every moment behind the scenes. Whether he was cracking a joke, lending a helping hand, or cheering up a coworker having a rough day, Kenny had a way of making everyone feel like family.
His presence was a comfort, his laugh a light, and his dedication unmatched. He showed up not just on time, but with heart. Day after day, he exemplified the very values we strive for—hospitality, friendship, and love.
More Than a Colleague
To so many of us, Kenny was more than a coworker—he was a brother, a confidant, a best friend. He celebrated our highs and supported us through our lows. He remembered birthdays, cracked jokes when the kitchen got slammed, and always made time to ask how you were doing—even when he was rushing to clean tables or run orders.
Guests loved him. Staff loved him. Management loved him. He made Eddie’s feel like home—for all of us.
A Life That Touched So Many
Kenny’s impact extended far beyond the four walls of the restaurant. He carried with him a heart big enough for everyone he met. Whether it was volunteering for a community cause, helping someone get back on their feet, or offering a ride home to a stranded coworker—Kenny gave, and gave, and gave.
His memory will live on in the stories we share over the bar, the laughter that echoes through the kitchen, and the genuine sense of family that he helped build.
A Moment to Reflect
As we process this unexpected and painful loss, we also celebrate the incredible life of a man who gave so much to so many. There will never be another like Little Kenny. His shoes may never be filled, but his legacy will remain in every kind gesture, every team hug, every shared laugh.
We invite our community—friends, guests, former staff, and anyone who knew Kenny—to join us in honoring his life. Details of a memorial service will be shared in the coming days.
Holding His Family in Our Heart
We extend our deepest condolences to Kenny’s family, especially his loved ones who shared him with us so generously. We are lifting them in prayer and holding them close in thought during this devastating time.
