Kenneth P. Pitts

Kenneth P. “Ken” Pitts, of O’Fallon, Missouri, passed away Thursday, October 15, 2020 at the age of 56.  Loving husband of Lisa Pitts; beloved son of the late Robert M. and Hazel Pitts; devoted father of Nicole (the late Emilio) Perez and James Pitts; dearest brother of Lorene (Paul) McVey and Jeff (Judy) Pitts; dear uncle, cousin, and friend to many.

Ken enjoyed his profession as a land surveyor and worked in this field for more than 30 years.  He loved to go fishing and valued teaching his son how to fish, especially at the river or the ponds around St. Charles.  They didn't always bring home a big haul, but they had fun while out on the water.

Ken was a true family man, and as a devoted dad, looked forward to attending his kids sporting events.  He was very proud that his daughter was a Marine, and his son was a Cub Scout and Boy Scout.  He looked forward to spending time with his family and going out for family dinners.

In his younger years, Ken had a passion for music, and he played in various bands and musical groups in school.  He was recently enjoying teaching his son how to play the bass guitar.

Ken liked going to the range to shoot his guns for target practice. He also liked to watch sports on TV, mostly the Detroit Tigers who were his first choice team and the St. Louis Cardinals who were a close second on his watchlist.  And, he always looked forward to watching the Super Bowl so that he could have a party.  He also liked watching MMA fighting on TV.

Ken could talk to just about anyone, and never knew a stranger. He could often be found talking politics with anyone who would listen, even if they didn't always agree with him.  He was dearly loved and will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

Memorial contributions may be made in Kenneth's name to Military Veteran Project.
