Kenneth R. Pichette 82 passed away unexpectedly on August 18, 2025. Born in Providence, he was the son of the late Viateur and Irene (Viens) Pichette.

Kenny started his career as a Toolmaker for Rau Fastener Co. after a few years in this industry, Kenny obtained his broker's license and was the Owner/Operator of Pichette Realty Inc in West Warwick, RI for many years. In 1988 he was hired as Property Maintenance Manager for Amirault Properties until he retired in 2020.

If you were ever looking for Ken in the summer, all you had to do was find where the local car show was and you would find Ken with one of his classic cars. Being the car enthusiast, you would also find Ken at a friend's garage involved with rebuilding classic cars (or at least giving his opinion).

Ken is survived by his brother Dennis Pichette and his wife Linda, also survived by his children Sheila and her husband Andrew, Kenneth, Richard and his wife Kima, and stepson William Card. He was the grandfather of Patrick, Danielle, Zac, Tiffany, Stephanie, Katie, Lane, Aaron and Jarrett. Great grandfather of one.
