I met Kenneth a little over 42 years ago as a coworker at Russell Hosiery. We became instant friends through our love of sports especially the Blue Devils. Life eventually took us different directions but friendship never fades and it was evident two years ago I randomly stopped by his home for the first time in many years. We picked up like we had never been apart. That’s the way Kenneth was. He would also give you the shirt off his back. I know, I was a 20 year old in Daytona with not a penny to my name. I had blown my cash the night before. My friend supported me for the next two days out of his own pocket. That’s what friends do. Kenneth I love you and will miss you. Prayers for everyone.
Prayers for the family, such a testimony of life he lived for all of us to follow.
Kenneth was my friend for over 40 years I will miss him till we meet again Rest In Peace my friend
My thoughts and prayers are with you…..
Jennifer,
Thinking of you and your family.
Sending love ,sympathy and prayers to this dear family. I went to school with Kenneth at Westmoore and then with Phyllis at North Moore. Kenneth was always a friend to everyone and always had a smile to share! Proud to call him my friend! Love you buddy and see you soon.
Kenneth was our Classmate at Westmoore…even then he was laughing, cajoling, teasing, looking after us with kindness in his heart. Most always had a big smile! Prayers for Phyllis and the family. Sincerely, Sandra Nall Davis
We are so sorry for your loss. You are all so dear to us. Love and prayers for you all.
