KENTON PRICE Obituary

KENTON JAY PRICE Kenton Jay Price, lovingly known as Kent, passed away peacefully at his home on November 4, 2024. Born on February 2, 1952, in Independence, Mo. Kent dedicated his life to his family and over 50 years with the UA and 38 years to his trade as a proud pipefitter with Local Union 533. A man of action, Kent found joy in the simple pleasures of life. An outdoorsman at heart, he spent free time fishing, camping, hunting, and scuba diving. He was also a skilled motorcyclist and a devoted tinkerer, often working on one of many beloved Chevy trucks. Kent was preceded in death by his parents, Victor Thomas Price and Lillian Faye (Colvin) Price, and a daughter, Tanya Melissa Price. He is survived by his daughter, Rebecca (Joe) Haney, his grandchildren, Lillian, Julia, Miriam, and Victoria, his brother, Greg (Jean) Price, his nieces, Stacey (Mark), Ann (Ignacio), and his dear friend Darla Seip. Kent's memory will endure, a testament to a life well-lived. Services will take place on Thursday, November 21, 2024, at Speaks Suburban Chapel, 18020 E. 39th St., Independence, MO 64055. A Funeral Service will begin at 5 p.m. and a visitation will follow between 6 - 8 p.m. In lieu of flowers, the family suggest contributions be made to Pipe Fitters Local 533, Community Donations, in Kent's honor.
