Kenneth was born on January 21, 1930 to Ralph and Hazel (Steffa) Bachelder in Davenport, IA. He was united in marriage to Rose Chrissinger on June 14, 1952 in Davenport.

Kenneth was a kind, loving, simple man with a big heart. He was just like MacGyver, he could fix anything and proper tools were overrated. He loved teaching and entertaining his grandchildren. Family meant everything to him.

Those left to cherish his memory are his wife of 67 years, Rose Marie Bachelder of Davenport, IA; daughter, Shari Bribriesco of Davenport, IA; son, Scott (Diane) Bachelder of Payson, AZ; grandchildren: Kathy Griffin, Kari Werner, Kory Griffin, Brianna Bachelder, Kristina Oliver, Adrianna Radford and Hannah Bachelder; and eighteen great grandchildren.

He was preceded in death by his parents; son-in-law, Tim Bribriesco; and eight siblings.
