Kenneth "Kenny" Ross Kennemore, 64, of Mexico, passed away on Saturday, December 7, 2024, at Pin Oaks Living Center.

Memorial Services will be at 4 p.m. on Saturday, December 14, at the Benton City Christian Church with Steve Kennemore officiating.

Kenny was born on November 8, 1960 in Kansas City, Kansas, the son of James Cleveland and Barbara Ann (McCoy) Kennemore.

In his younger days, Kenneth worked for Mexico Lumber Company, a job that brought him immense satisfaction and joy. He also found a sense of community and belonging as a member of Oak Grove Assembly of God in Kansas City, Kansas.

Kenny took great pride in his meticulous nature, especially when it came to detailing cars. His attention to detail and love for organization were evident in everything he did. Known for being a sharp dresser, he was always very particular about his clothing, particularly in his earlier years.

Aside from his love for fashion, Kenneth had a passion for barbeque and enjoyed indulging in spicy foods. A natural jokester, he relished a good laugh and never missed an opportunity to bring humor into the lives of those around him.

Survivors include his children, Steve (Sarah) Kennemore of Moberly, Stacey (Jason) Williams of Mexico, and Amber (Justin) Rhea of Fulton; five grandchildren, Sidney Kennemore of Bentonville, Arkansas, Shelby Kennemore of Moberly, Camden Williams of Mexico, Christian Azdell of Mexico, and Liberty Samuelson of Fulton; six siblings, Robert (Mary) Kennemore of Auxvasse, Shelley Kennemore (Mike) Lust of Mexico, Cynthia (Darrel) Keeley of Overland Park, Kansas, Patricia Kennemore Garnett of Mexico, Virginia (Ron) Cagle of Irving, Texas, and Linda (Jimmy) Matticks of Rainbow, Texas; and numerous nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews, and cousins.

Kenny was preceded in death by his parents, granddaughter, Emma Azdell; three brothers, Daniel Kennemore, Jimmy Kennemore, and Johnny Kennemore; two sisters, Carolyn Ford and Kathy Kennemore; and two nieces, Mindy Phillips and Krystal Poole.
