Thomas Kevin Fenimore

Thomas Kevin Fenimore Age 66 | Townsend, DE Thomas Kevin Fenimore, known as Kevin, “KFF,” or “The Dude” to his family and friends, passed away peacefully on February 20, 2025, after a brief illness. He was born in Wilmington, DE, to the late Phyllis and Noble Fenimore. Kevin was known for his quick wit, kind heart, and unwavering loyalty to those he loved. Kevin was a proud member of UA Local 74 Plumbers and Pipefitters union, and spent most of his career working for I.D. Griffith. He would often joke about how much he loved being a “rich and famous pipefitter.” Outside of work, he was an active member of the Townsend Sportsman’s Association and the Loyal Order of Moose. He was a picker, a grinner, and a bluegrass-loving musician, and never one to sit still when there was hunting or fishing to be done. A true outdoorsman, he always had a new project in the works and never met an animal that wasn’t a fast friend, especially a good bird dog. A music lover to his core, he was always the first in line for tickets if there was a good concert in town or festival to attend. With a guitar in hand, he found joy in picking tunes, tending his garden, and taking pride in cooking and canning what he grew. Always quick with a joke, he never passed up an opportunity to help someone in need, especially his friends. Kevin is survived by his daughters, Leigh and Jessica; his three granddaughters, Lana, Ava, and Grace; his mother-in-law, Jean; his brother, three sisters, and their families; and a legion of pets. He was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Sharon, and his parents. He was loved by many and will be remembered always. Family and friends are invited to pay their respects to Kevin during a public visitation on Monday, March 3, 2025, from 10:00 to 11:00 AM at Strano & Feeley Family Funeral Home, located at 635 Churchman’s Road, Newark, DE 19702.
