Kenneth Michael Schmidt II

Kenneth Schmidt, a confident and vibrant young man who lived life to the fullest, passed away on September 24, 2026, in Bullhead City, Arizona. He was born on March 4, 2004, at Saint Bernardine's Hospital in San Bernardino, California.

Kenneth was a hard worker, who could put his mind and heart into anything and succeed. Throughout his working life, he almost always maintained two jobs at once. most recently working diligently at the Riverside Casino and Harrah's Casino. He loved serving guests, attending to their comfort, and cherishing the bonds he shared with his coworkers, always bringing a smile to work, along with the occasional practical joke. Through careful planning and saving, he was exceptionally proud of the truck he purchased.

A true adventurer at heart, Kenneth loved vehicles, going to the beach, taking road trips, family vacations, and visiting lakes, rivers and streams. Above all, Kenneth had a tremendous heart for others. From childhood, when he brought home numerous animals and reptiles that needed care, to his teenage years, when he began bringing home anyone down on their luck who needed a warm place to stay and a hot meal. Kenneth was always ready to help people, whether he knew them well or not.

He is survived by his parents, Kenneth Schmidt Sr. and Deanna Crane; his grandmothers, Marsha Schmidt and Marie Crane; and his brothers, Austin Moore and Eddie Schmidt.

Kenneth lived a life full of passion, kindness, and generosity, and he will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
