Kenneth Firth

Kenneth Firth, a beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend, was called home on August 9, 2026, after a courageous battle with cancer. Born on July 30, 1955, in the close-knit community of Naples, Texas, Kenneth was a beacon of strength and kindness, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts of all who knew him.

Kenneth was the cherished son of Edward and Betty Firth, who nurtured his spirit of generosity and resilience. He was preceded in death by his loving parents, his sister Peggy Autrey, and his sister-in-law Linda Martin. His legacy continues through the lives of those he leaves behind, most notably his devoted wife, Carolyn, with whom he shared 52 wonderful years of marriage. Their journey together began on February 2, 1974, a partnership blessed with love, laughter, and the joy of family.

Together, Kenneth and Carolyn raised their son, Jason Firth, instilling in him the same values of integrity and compassion that defined Kenneth’s life. He took immense pride in his role as a grandfather to his two grandsons, Dakota and Logan Firth, whose lives he enriched with his wisdom and warmth.

Kenneth is also survived by his sister, Brenda Smith, and his brother, Micheal Firth, along with numerous other family members and friends who cherished his presence and will carry forward his legacy of love.

Family meant everything to Kenneth, and he was known for his unwavering dedication and supportive nature. Whether at family gatherings or community events, his laughter and stories brought people together, reminding us all of the simple joys of life.

A service to celebrate Kenneth's life will be held on August 11, 2026, at 1:31 PM. As we gather to honor his memory, we remember a man who lived fully and loved deeply, leaving behind a world made brighter by his presence.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made in Kenneth's memory to a charity of their choice, reflecting his lifelong commitment to helping others.

Kenneth Firth’s life was a testament to the power of love and resilience. He will be profoundly missed, yet his spirit will live on in the hearts of those who were privileged to know him.
