Kenny faithfully served three years in the US Army, stationed in Fort Knox, Kentucky.
He enjoyed golfing, watching sports, and going to many beaches along the East coast, especially Myrtle Beach with his family. He will be remembered for his witty personality, the many “Kennyisms” he had, and will always be thought of when anyone hears the whistling Andy Griffith theme song which was one of his favorites.

Arrangements have been entrusted to the professional care of the Rossi Brothers and Lellio Funeral Home, 4442 South Ave. in Boardman.
