"Mr. Kennedy was a regular here he was at the soup kitchen almost every night for dinner. This is a very tight knit homeless community so everyone pretty much knew each other," Maya Nicole Matthews, the executive director of Enfield Loaves and Fishes, told FOX61 in August.

Enfield Loaves and Fishes serves many people who are a part of the town's homeless community. Kennedy, was someone the executive director says she knew well.

"He had his good days and his bad days. On his good days he was very pleasant he was a very intelligent man, I spoke with him often. And you know he was struggling so he was doing the best that he could," Matthews said.
