Thomas Sherwood Obituary

Thomas Kenneth Sherwood, affectionately known as "Kenny", of Trappe, Maryland passed away June 6, 2025 at University of Maryland Medical Center - Mid Town Campus in Baltimore following a brief illness.

Born September 5, 1952 in Easton, he was the son of the late Willard Kenneth and Rose Marie Holland Sherwood.

Kenny was a hard worker. He was a truck driver for Moore's Lumber and Building Supplies for 42 years. That's where he met his future wife, Penny Diefenderfer. Kenny was a past member of the Cordva Volunteer Fire Department and on the rare occasion he wasn't working, Kenny enjoyed crabbing and hunting or watching a Nascar race, Mark Martin being his long time favorite driver.

In addition to his wife, Penny, Kenny is survived by his children: Tracy Gannon, Tommy Sherwood, Barry Sherwood, Geoff Diefenderfer, Kelley Cummings, Nick Newnam and Andrew Diefenderfer; 18 grandchildren and two brothers.

Kenny is preceded in death by his parents Willard And Rose Marie Sherwood.

Per Kenny's request, there will be no memorial service. If you'd like to give a contribution in his memory, you may do so to the Trappe Volunteer Fire Company (PO Box 86, Trappe, MD 21673).
