Kenneth passed away at his home, surrounded by family on March 26, 2025, at the age of 94. He was born in the Ashmore Community on March 30, 1930, to Waymon Charles and Crystal Lyles Young.

Kenneth married Joan Nell Jones on January 12, 1955. Together they had two children, Mike Young of Loop, and Diane McCutchen of Brownfield.

Kenneth dedicated his life to providing for his family. His greatest joy came from being with his children and grandchildren, with whom he shared countless precious moments. He was known for his playful spirit, always ready to engage in games and adventures that lit up the faces of the young ones he adored.

For 66 wonderful years, Kenneth was a devoted husband, often affectionately referring to his wife as "my little Bride." Their bond was a testament to true love, and even after her passing, Kenneth never stopped missing her. His heart was a reservoir of loyalty, both to his family and to the values he held dear.

Kenneth was a hard worker with a strong work ethic who supported his family while also finding solace in his favorite pastime—fishing. He enjoyed the calm waters, where he often found peace and reflection.

Pallbearers will be Michael Ribble, Kelly Edwards, Trevor Young, Kelli Moore, Tanner Ribble, and Taryn Ribble.
