Kenneth Stickney Obituary
Born in Idaho, he was the son of the late Thaddeus and Alice Stickney. He served in the U. S. Navy during World War II and retired as a Master Chief after 30 years of service.

Kenneth was preceded in death by three siblings. Left to cherish his memory: his wife of 63 years, Virginia M. Stickney; two sons, Jeffrey Stickney (Shirley) and Kevin Stickney; two grandsons, Andrey and Alexei; and many more loving family members.
