Kenneth Wayne West was born on January 14th, 1973, to the parents of AD Turner and Eunice West. Kenneth attended both South Oak Cliff & Roosevelt High Schools as well as Richland College. He accepted Christ as his savior at an early age and rededicated himself by being baptized at home while on hospice. He was an avid sports fan, his favorite teams being the Boston Celtics and New York Jets. He enjoyed watching sports, bowling, playing golf, grilling, and just simply spending time with his family. He had the most amazing smile and loved being the one to make everybody laugh. Kenneth departed this life on February 4, 2023, after a short battle with cancer. He was preceded in death by both parents AD Turner & Eunice Louise West, maternal grandparents Wilmer & Mary Joe West, paternal grandparent Raymond Peppers, uncles Elmo, Archie, Bobby, & Arthur West, his brother Darryl Whitfield, and nephew Jeremy West.
