Kenneth Berry Obituary
Kenneth L. Berry, Jr. died under the care of Vitas Hospice in Lecanto, on Feb. 10, 2026. He was 72 years old. Ken was born in Orlando on July 11, 1953, to Kenneth L. Berry Sr. and Nancy (Williams) Berry.
He grew up as an active member of First Baptist Church Orlando and coached their softball and basketball teams. After attending college at what is now UCF in Orlando, he secured a teaching position in Inverness, FL at Citrus High School.
In 1980, he married Cindy Cox, also of Orlando. Their family grew with children Christine and Rob. Over his 35 years at Citrus High, Ken taught a variety of subjects including Physical Science, PE, Weightlifting, and Health. For many of those years, he coached JV Football, Varsity Football, and Girls Softball.
"Coach Berry" had a routine of lunch and parking lot duties, football practice, Friday night games, and Saturdays watching college football. He was a member of First Baptist, and then Cornerstone churches. In retirement, Ken often reflected on his coaching days. His undefeated JV football seasons were a proud accomplishment.
Ken is survived by his wife Cindy, son Rob, daughter Christine (husband Drew), brother Dana (wife Karen), sister Angela (husband David), and grandchildren Sadie, Elisabeth and Alexandra. Services were held on Saturday, Feb. 14 at 11 a.m. at Chas. E. Davis Funeral Home with Pastor Zac Drummond officiating.
