Kenneth Sanders Obituary

He stood in truth, no mask, no disguise, spoke it plain, looked life in the eyes. A loving husband, steady and true, a family man through and through. His words were sharp, but his heart was kind, the kind of strength that's rare to find. He gave with joy, he helped with grace, left quiet blessings in every place. From bowling lanes to guitar strings, you could feel the joy his presence brings. A giving soul, both firm and fair, you always knew where he stood, and that he cared. Now he rests, his work complete, But his love still echoes, strong and sweet.

On Thursday March 19, 2026; God in His infinite wisdom, called son Mr. Kenneth Sanders, 79, of North Charleston, South Carolina from labor to reward.
