Kenneth Allen Sapp, Jr., 61, of Tunnelton, WV, passed away peacefully at his home, surrounded by his loving family, on Saturday, May 2, 2026.
Kenneth was born on August 3, 1964, in Morgantown, WV, a son of the late Kenneth Allen Sapp, Sr. and Ethel Evelyn (Miller) Sapp.
Kenneth was a true outdoorsman who enjoyed fishing, hunting, ginsenging, mushroom hunting, and camping. He found great joy in being outside and sharing those moments with the people he loved. He was also a foodie, with KFC holding a special place as his favorite. Kenneth was a devoted family man who loved to laugh and bring joy to those around him. More than anything, he treasured his grandchildren and cherished every moment spent with them.
