West Kingston
Miller, Kenneth A., 60, died Friday, August 15, 2025, at Kent Hospital in Warwick, with his family at his bedside. Born in Providence, he was the beloved son of Sanford and Joyce (Mayberg) Miller of Warwick, and a dear brother of Lawrence Miller of Smithfield, RI. He had lived in West Kingston for the last twelve years. He attended the Boston School for the Deaf and graduated from the Rhode Island School for the Deaf.
Ken loved to create art and was a staple to the Out of the Box Art community. His passion for creating was contagious. Each star that he drew was unique and expressed his calm and kind nature. Ken was part of the Bridges Bombers bowling team for 10 years and participated in Special Olympics competition for basketball, softball and was a gold medalist for bowling.
Ken's infectious smile, unwavering patience (especially when teaching others how to communicate with ASL), and profound kindness touched everyone he met, and his legacy will live on through the many lives he enriched.
Aside from his parents and brother, he is survived by many loving aunts, uncles and cousins. Ken will be missed by his family and his many friends, especially his housemates Frank, Nya and Jose.
Kenneth's family gives thanks to all of the people who have helped and supported Kenneth over the years.
Funeral services and Shiva were held privately. In lieu of flowers, contributions in his memory may be made to Looking Upwards, Inc., P.O. Box 4289, Middletown, RI 02842.
