Kenny was raised in Camden County and attended Linn Creek and Camdenton Schools, graduating in 1980. He was a devoted and loyal employee, working for the same employer for over forty years. At the age of fourteen, he stocked shelves and bagged groceries at Ezard’s Grocery store in Osage Beach, Missouri, later becoming a meat cutter. For approximately thirty years, he worked at Ezard’s Ace Hardware. While there, he established many friendships with coworkers and customers. One customer even stated he knew when Kenny was working by the music that was playing on the intercom when he entered the store. Kenny made a profession of faith and was baptized at a young age. He was a lifelong member of Linn Creek United Methodist Church. Kenny loved watching Chiefs football, Cardinals baseball, and Nascar races. He was a huge Dale Earnhardt and Dale Earnhardt Jr. fan. He attended the first Brickyard race in 1994 and continued attending this race for the next twenty-three years. He especially enjoyed the races where he was able to take his sons along. Kenny also enjoyed hunting and fishing and took several memorable hunting trips. He loved nothing more than cooking for his family and friends as well as a good joke, prank, or laugh. His greatest joy was spending time with his family. He cherished every moment spent with family. Kenny was a loving husband, father, grandfather, son, brother, uncle, and friend. We celebrate his life and accomplishments and will treasure the memories he created for his family and friends.
