Kenneth enjoyed fishing, camping, sports cards, and owned the former Ken’s Sports Card store on Canal Street in Nashua. His love for sports led him to coach baseball and instill a winning mentality along with other core life values in the next generation. He was an avid concert goer and loved his music. You could find him wearing his Tie-dye shirt, singing along and dancing to every tune.
In his later years, ‘Kenny’ loved taking his grandchildren on tractor rides, watching sports together, and always being surrounded by friends and family at a house he built together with his two sons. His passion for fishing created lifelong bonds with friends and his oldest son Jim Bob. His love for music spilled over to his youngest son Jake, which always allowed for easy conversation.
