Kenneth "Kenny" Pepper, owner of Glass Weld, was born on April 25, 1954 in Delhi 
to James and Elsie "Marie" Pepper. Mr. Pepper passed away May 31, 2014 at St. 
Francis Medical Center after post-op complications.

Kenny, a graduate of Crowville High School, went to work off shore for Noble 
Drilling in 1972 until 1980. In 1980, he began working for Fussell Company 
Contractors where he continued to work for the next 14 years as a track hoe 
operator. In 1996 he began his adventure in the cable TV business in hanging and 
splicing coax cable. In 1999 he found his true love and talent as a fiber optic 
communication splicer. He was able to travel all over the United States as a 
subcontractor for other companies. His knowledge in this business was so admired 
by all that he taught and worked for. He helped numerous businesses build new, 
expand and update in order to have proper communication networks. God provided 
him with a great talent that many men could never comprehend. During all of 
these years, Kenny found time when he was home to help his wife, Vicki, with 
their farm.

Kenny was a dedicated member to his Christian faith, ministering to those he 
worked with all over the United States. He was a member of Fish Bayou Baptist 
Church in the Swamper's Community.

Kenny was preceded in death by his parents; twin infant sons Christian and 
Christopher Pepper; two brothers, Joseph "Joey" Pepper and Phillip Pepper; 
father-in-law, Thomas "Hunk" Fussell; grandparents, J.T. "Shorty" and Evelyn 
Robinson, Lee and Julia Pepper; uncle J.T. Robinson, Jr.

Survivors include his wife of 37 years, married June 14, 1977, Vicki Fussell 
Pepper; daughter Bridgette Pepper Bordelon and husband Robbie; daughter Lora 
Pepper Batchelor and husband Fletch; grandchildren Victoria Elise Bordelon and 
Tristan Allen Bordelon with a third grandchild, Jaxton Kenneth-Darrow Batchelor 
expected to arrive in early November; brother James Eugene Pepper; mother-in-law 
Betty Fussell; aunts, Patsy McDuffie, Jo Ellen Wroten and husband Jack, Emilee 
Callaway, Minnie Bell Hebert and husband Aaron, Hazel Grayson, Elizabeth Pylant 
and husband George, Rose Robinson; as well as a host on nieces and nephews and 
close family friends.

Kenny's favorite joy was spending time with his family. He never hesitated to 
help his children and grandchildren with any "project" they felt needed to be 
done. His family was his world and now his family's world is not complete 
without him. "Pawpaw Kenny" will always be near and dear to his family's heart.

Serving as pallbearers will be Don King of Joplin, Missouri; Brian Manix of 
Baton Rouge, Louisiana; Brian Belleu of Walker, Louisiana; Mike Hibdon of 
Versailles, Missouri; Wilton Hunt of Fanklinton, Louisiana; Tom Dennis of 
Springhill, Louisiana.

Honorary pallbearers will be Lannie Sturdivant, John Scott, Thomas Kelly, and 
Clyde "Bear" Johnson.
