Kenneth was an avid outdoorsman. You could find him fishing, hunting, trolling, and oystering. Building custom fishing rods was a great past time for him. He was known to give away just as many as he sold, if not more. If he saw children fishing and thought they needed rods, he would gladly stop and give a rod or two. Kenneth was a people person who never knew a stranger and enjoyed helping others. He loved spending time with his friends and family, especially his grandchildren. He was a loving husband, father, and grandfather, who will be deeply missed but never forgotten.
Samart Funeral Home of Houma, Bayou Blue is in charge of arrangements.
