Kenneth started his career in the trucking industry early on at the age of 15, where he would work alongside his father. He was a truck driver all his life, beginning with Emery Waterhouse Co. and retiring from Yellow Freight as a Teamster.

Kenneth and Claudia raised their three children on Montgomery Road in Windham, where they lived for years. During their retirement, they loved riding their motorcycle, taking their RV down to South Carolina to visit with family, making many friends on their camping adventures, singing karaoke at the American Legion, and going on many outings with the Circle of Friends.
