He is survived by Karly Green and Latisha Butler, who were loving caregivers and friends; his son, Aaron West; two brothers, Bill and his wife Deb West, and Steven West; one sister, Roseanne and her husband Kent Barnes, and two grandchildren.

Kenneth is preceded in death by his parents and one nephew, Kenny Cox.
