Kenneth E. Myers, 94, passed away peacefully on Friday January 30, 2026, surrounded by his family at the Vero of Bethlehem. Born in Wellsville, PA, he was the son of the late Ralph and Marie (Krone) Myers and predeceased by his brother, Richard “Dick” Myers. Kenneth was a devoted and loving husband to his wife, Laura A.
