Kenneth served honorably in the US Army for 2 years, including time in Germany. After his military service, he proudly served his community as a firefighter with the Washington, D.C. Fire Department for almost 25 years. In his spare time, Kenneth worked as a skilled bricklayer and enjoyed being outdoors, cutting grass, gardening, and doing chores around the house. Fishing was one of his favorite pastimes, and he had a natural ability to tackle any task he set his mind to.

He is survived by his wife of 57 years, Joyce E. Stephens; sons, Michael W. Stephens (Patricia), Kenneth S. Stephens, Jr. (Donna) and Richard P. Stephens (Kathy); sister, Barbara Anne Kerr; four grandchildren; as well as many nieces and nephews.
