Kenneth Andrew Anderson

Our beloved Kenneth Andrew Anderson, "Chill," was born and raised in Camden, SC, on November 3, 1968, to Mary A. Parker (stepfather Robert Parker)  and  George  Lenix  of  Camden,  SC.  

Kenny  graduated  from Camden High School Class of 1987.  He met and married his high school sweetheart,  Tracey  Nelson  Anderson  of  Lugoff,  SC and  they  were  blessed with two beautiful daughters from that union.  

Kenny was a jovial, strong, and creative man who loved to entertain his family. In his earlier years, Kenny enjoyed playing baseball for Camden Rangers,  Lugoff  Blue  Jays,  and  Blanding  Sluggers,  where  he  played shortstop  and  second  base.  He  also  enjoyed  watching  movies,  dancing, playing  cards,  and  playing  horseshoe.  

He  was  employed  at  HBD Thermoid before closing down;  but most recently, at Kershaw County Council  on  Aging.  Kenny  brought  light  to  any  situation  with  his infectious  smile  and  laughter.  He  was  our  grill  master,  who  threw anything on the grill despite the weather- rain, snow, sleet, or hail. Kenny brought so much joy in all those who encountered and he will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who knew him. 

His grandmothers, three uncles, and one aunt preceded him in death. 

Kenny  leaves to cherish  his  memories: two daughters, Shantise  Byrd (Quester) of Blythewood, SC and Kenyatta Anderson of Columbia, SC; three grandchildren, Zoey, Kali, and Aria Byrd; his grandfather, David (Sadie)  Lenix; siblings, Kimberly Warren (Frank), Richard Hubbard Jr, Theresa, Torsha, and Michael;  one  nephew,  Daryl  Richardson;  aunts,  Minnie  Jones  of Camden,  SC and  Ruby  Lawhorn  (Melvin)  of  Camden,  SC;  uncles, George Jones (Sylvia) of Augusta, GA and Jimmy Jones of Camden, SC; god-children, Whitney Pinckney and Logan Westberry; stepsiblings, Roberta (Dexter), Destry, Vivian (Robert Jr.), and Latoya; host of cousins and friends. 

As he would always say, “You gots to chill.”
