Kenneth worked as a Service Technician for Don Jacobs Honda Service for the past 27 ½ years. “Kenny” as he was affectionately known, was called Mr. ESPN by some of his friends because there wasn’t a sports stat he didn’t know, whether it be football, basketball, baseball, track field, golf, etc. Kenny was a big fan of the University of Kentucky, Florida State (football), and Dallas Cowboys and often traveled to their games. Kenny enjoyed spending his free time at Malibu Pub and Grill and highly recommended their wings. He and his family enjoyed many “family nights” at Comedy Off Broadway in Lexington, KY. Kenny never met a stranger and would talk to every person in the room. Everyone he met loved him.
