Kenneth Price Obituary

January 10, 1949 – October 2, 2023

KINGSPORT - In memory of Kenneth Earl Price, a loving father and devoted grandfather, peacefully passed away on October 2, 2023, embraced by the arms of our Heavenly Father, following a series of health challenges. Born on January 10, 1949, he was the eldest child of Earl and Opal Price.

Kenneth's love for woodworking brought joy to the lives of those around him.

He was an avid fisherman, always eager to cast his line and share time with his loved ones.

Kenneth was a successful entrepreneur. He owned and operated TN Inst. Co. for years, leaving a continuing legacy.

He is survived by his son, Michael (Dana), and daughter, Ashley May (Joe). His pride and joy were his grands: Olivia, Layla, Kendon, Harper, Ella, and Heidi, who brought much happiness to his life.

Services to celebrate Kenneth's life to be announced.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests a donation to the St Dominic Catholic School Tuition Program in his honor.

Kenneth will be remembered for the memories he created with his family and friends. May he rest in eternal peace, forever in our hearts.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

I'm so sorry Michael. Prayers for your family. Your dad was a good man with a big heart. To me he'll always be Uncle Ken. He is & will continue to be deeply missed. It's comforting knowing he's finally at peace. My Uncle Ken helped me in many ways over the years. Towards the end of his life when he couldn't get around very well anymore we would call each other. I'll always cherish the conversations we had. When I had noone else he was there to give me advice. When I was younger he taught me how to bowl. Some weekends he'd pick me up early & take me fishing. I'll miss everything about him.
