Kenny was a fine gentleman, a great neighbor and loved his family.
I loved his cheerful attitude, his smiles and how helpful he was to everyone around him. He will be missed in our little Ooltewah neighborhood.

On behalf of the Oakes family (Anne, Justin and Jessica) we would like to express our condolences  to Donna and her entire family on the loss of Kenny.

We have know the Lawson’s for many years and have enjoyed their friendship for over 20 years. Kenny was our sons Justin’s baseball coach and mentor when he was in Ooltewah Middle and High school. We enjoyed so many hours on the fields and afterwards going out to lunch or dinner. He was a wonderful man and always had a smile on his face. He will be missed by so many people. Our prayers to the family. Love you! Anne, Justin and Jessica Oakes

I’m heartbroken for you and your family, but happy you rest in His arms. Since that is joyous news, and we remain to endure without you, I’ll will share the first time I got to know you. Kenny was the first umpire to ever throw me out of a game. He did it with fire and flare…because that’s what my personality required. No apologies. It was glorious. To be clear, I was kind of glad to get tossed. I had a new baby and need to get away but wouldn’t miss a game if I …”could,” you know what I mean? Kenny was great and a pleasure to know. He was a blessing to me and my family.

One of the most loving man I’ve ever known. He was always so joyful and made us laugh. We love you uncle Kenny! ❤️

Kenny was always a pleasure to be around. I was fortunate enough to get to know him while working together. The last time I saw him there were no complaints; you would never know he was ill. He’ll be greatly missed.
