Kenneth Partridge Obituary

Kenneth Partridge

Turners Falls, MA - Kenneth R. Partridge, 90, of Turners Falls, Massachusetts, passed away on December 25, 2023. Born in 1933, he grew up in Sherman Station, Maine, before joining the Air Force and serving for 27 years. While serving at Offutt AFB, he met his wife, Violet, and they had 4 children during their travels. He is survived by his wife of nearly 65 years, Violet, and children: Paula Kendrick (Gary), John, David (Natalie) and Debra as well as 7 grandchildren: Alex, Nick, Madeline, Nathan, Julia, Amelia, and Michael.

He was loved for his dark sense of humor, relentless work ethic, strong family values, intellect and quick wit, and his ability to flawlessly do the entire family's taxes every year. Not only could he stretch a penny like no other and invest prudently over the years for his family, but he was the best garden-hand his wife could have asked for (most of the time). He is deeply loved and will be missed forever.
