Mr. Roberds was born December 9, 1958 in Jonesboro, Arkansas; the son of Pete Roberds and Katherine Worden Roberds. He married Bonnie "Susie" Marks Roberds on December 31, 2004 in Ft. Smith, Arkansas. While serving in Germany during 1980, a car accident rendered him paraplegic. Although disabled, he accomplished his lifelong dream of learning to fly. Equipping his plane with special controls he was one of very few people to fly using hand controls. Besides flying, his other passions included fishing and making music. Always wearing a smile, playing his guitar on Friday night with "Country Rain", and entertaining people was his joy. No matter whether fishing, flying or playing his guitar, Kenny's family was always close. Mr. Roberds passed this life on November 20, 2006
after having attained the age of
47 years, 11 months and 11 days.
