Kenneth Perlock Obituary

Kenneth Perlock 1950 - 2018
WESTMORELAND - Kenneth Perlock, 67, passed away peacefully on July 23, 2018 at Mohawk Valley Rehabilitation and Nursing Center.
He was born on November 18, 1950, to the late Stanley and Sadie (Glod) Perlock. Ken graduated from Utica schools and was employed with The Home Depot before liver cancer and a transplant caused him to retire. The transplant allowed him nine more years of life, which he lived as fully as possible.
Ken is survived by his sister and brother-in-law, Katherine and Jerry Grega, Westmoreland; uncle, Edward; and several cousins. He was predeceased by his wife, Alice; and brother, Gary.
In keeping with Ken's wishes, there will be no public visitation. Funeral services will be at the convenience of the family. A Celebration of Life will be at a later date.
The family wishes to thank Dr. Pylman and the nurses and staff of Barton East at Mohawk Valley Rehabilitation and Nursing Center for allowing Ken to pass away with peace and dignity.
Arrangements are under the direction of McGrath, Myslinski, Karboski & Nunn Funeral Directors, 470 French Road, Utica.

So sorry to hear about Kenny's passing. I remember him as a genuinely kind and good person with a great smile. He was respectful of his parents and was always a hard worker. In his youth, he cherished and took very good care of his beloved dog Ginger and she loved him back. They were inseparable. The world could use many more just like you, Kenny. God's peace and happiness, Kenny, now and always. You more than earned it my friend.
