Kenneth Hammett, or just ‘Ken’, died peacefully on January 2nd in his home in Milford, PA. Raised in Jefferson, New Jersey where he got his high school diploma and is a William Patterson alumni receiving a Bachelors in Communications. He was also a member of the TKE fraternity. He spent time as a volunteer firefighter in both Newton, New Jersey and Dingmans Ferry, Pennsylvania. A hard worker, he also was a dispatcher at PENDOT in his later life and an associate at Home Depot.
Anyone close to Ken could tell you about his fascination and respect for the Beatles, knowing every song by them written. He had a deep love for animals like his predecease cat, Ziggy, and the environment, always insisting on recycling and ensuring that value on his children.
A dedicated son to Kenneth Sr. and his mother Harriet, a big brother to Chris, Heather and Mark, a loving father to his children Katie and Nick, and a friend to countless others, he will be celebrated and missed.
