Kenneth “Alabama Ken” Vinyard, 48, of Industry PA, formerly of Columbus, GA passed away tragically while being a Good Samaritan helping someone who was injured on Sunday, November 6, 2022.
Ken loved being a father to Crimson, his only daughter, the love of his life. He always loved spending time with his friends, his sisters, Debbie and Lisa, nephew Luke and his fiancé Marcy. Ken spent countless hours at Luanne’s Route 68 bar and Sylvia’s bar where he enjoyed spending time with friends.
Ken’s passion was his love of being on the water and his houseboat that he shared with his fiancé, Marcy and friends; the doors of the boat were always open for his friends to use.
