Kenneth Onofri Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Born on July 20th, 1963, in Newfoundland, Canada, Ken was the eldest son of Marjorie Josephine Perkins and the late Daniel Thomas Onofri. He attended Hillcrest High School in Dalzell, SC and was employed by Steve Hendrix Construction for over 20 years. Ken acquired the nickname "Rhino" from his long-time co-workers and was known for his hard work ethic. "Rhino" was not Ken's only nickname; he was known by his beloved grandchildren as "Pop-Pop". Ken enjoyed taking his Harley out on the open road, he spent a lot of time making sure it was well kempt and squeaky clean. To relax, you would find Ken watching NASCAR, hockey, other sports, and old classic television shows.
Ken is survived by his son Casey Onofri (Erika); daughters Kristen Onofri and Amber Floyd; grandchildren, William Williams IV, Madalyn Onofri, Jordyn Welch, Casey Tate Onofri, Bristal McKuhen, and Rylee Welch; sisters, Tina Bowen (John), Karen Jagoda, and Samantha Hale; many loved nieces and nephews; numerous friends and family; and lifelong friend Stephen Hendrix Sr.
