Fort Worth, Texas - Kenneth A. Daily, 89, passed away on Wednesday, May 15, 2024, with his wife, Phyllis Overton, by his side. He was born on June 25, 1934, in Dallas, Texas. Shortly after his birth, he was adopted by Felix and Mabel Daily in San Antonio, Texas.

Kenneth served in the United States Air Force, from June 1952 to June 1956 during the Korean War, and retired from Universal Blueprint Paper Company/Ridgeway.

He is survived by his loving wife, Phyllis Overton; daughter, Cindy Knackstedt; granddaughter, Natalie James, her husband, Robert; great-grandchildren, Stella and Mason James; nephew, Jim Ed Haile, his wife, Kari, their sons, J.

Kenneth also had a loving extended family: Gaby and Milton Krumm, Ronnie Harris, Lucas James, Cindy Boullt, and Chris Abel.

Kenneth loved golf. He was a Colonial Country Club Marshall and Co-Chair for over 40 years. For his distinguished and prolonged volunteer service, he was inducted into the Pride of the Plaid in May 2020.
