Kenneth Schlabach Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Webb Funeral Home on Apr. 9, 2025.
Kenneth Eugene Schlabach, 46, of Spruce Pine, NC, passed away from a hemorrhagic stroke Sunday, January 12, after a week-long battle for his life. His family had the privilege of being beside his bed after the nurses had removed care. His "upgrade" was utterly peaceful, and they worshiped through tears for the gift he was to them, as his great big heart beat more and more slowly, the last bit of life to go. Kenny was born on December 29, 1978 in Clarksville TN, to Paul & Linda Schlabach. He grew up in Guthrie, KY and Bedford, PA. After graduation, Kenny went on to be a business entrepreneur. In his own words he struggled with a life-long condition known as "business diarrhea". Kens family and friends will remember his love of life, people, and fun. He was known for his kindness, generosity, and quick-witted humor. He always had a trip or two in his queue.He is survived by his wife; CarmaLinda (Hofer) Schlabach and 5 children; Nicolas and (fiance Felicia Stoltzfus), Patrick, Kyra, Christopher, and Jenika.Kennys parents; Paul & Linda (Miller) Schlabach of Bedford, PA and 3 siblingsNate Schlabach & wife, Rebecca (Yoder) Schlabach of Spruce Pine, NC and their 4 childrenDorcas (Schlabach) Peight & husband, Gabe Peight of Conneaut Lake, PA and their 5 childrenRachel (Schlabach) Steiner & husband, Leon Steiner of Fredericksburg OH and their 6 childrenCarmaLindas stepdad & mother; Dwight & Susie (Hofer) Strubhar of Lancaster, PA and 5 siblingsCharmaine (Hofer) Chupp & husband, Ryan Chupp of Iowa City, IA and their 3 childrenJadon Hofer & wife, Eunice (Kropf) Hofer of Lancaster PA and their 2 childrenConrad Strubhar & wife, Jessica (Yoder) Strubhar of Mocksville, NC and their 2 childrenJoyLynn (Strubhar) Esh & husband, Joseph Esh of Stevens, PA and their 3 childrenClark Strubhar of Lancaster PAKen was preceded in death by CarmaLindas father, Phillip HoferAll family and friends are welcome to attend the visitation at the Restoration Church in Woodleaf, NC on Saturday, January 18, 2025 from 10:00 am until 1:00 pm and from 2:00 pm until 5:00 pm.Friends and family are invited to attend the celebration service on Sunday, January 19, 2025 at 10:00 am at Restoration Church in Woodleaf, NC.
