Kenneth was born in Jackson and lived his entire life in Henderson. Kenneth is the son of the late Ted Clement and Velma Johnston Clement. He attended school in Chester County.

After he became unable to attend church he would often listen to services on the radio.

He is survived by a son, Tim (Judy) Clement of Kansas City, Kansas, a daughter, Becky (Sandy) Cox of Henderson; six grandchildren, Matthew (Sara) Clement, Aaron (Christina) Clement, Laura (Annie) Clement, Jonathon Cox, Benjamin Cox, and Becca Cox, and four great grandchildren Elijah, Eleanor, Amelia and Sunday.
