Kenneth Paul Hale, 83, of Arcadia, passed away at his home with his family by his side on Thursday, March 5, 2020. He was born on July 9, 1936, in Aroma, Indiana to Paul and Clarice (Mills) Hale. Kenneth married the love of his life, Patricia Robinson (she precedes him), on July 3, 1957 and they were blessed to share nearly 62 years of marriage.
Kenneth graduated from Jackson Central, class of 1954. He retired from Rudd Equipment after several years. He was a proud United States Navy Veteran serving in CO A29. He served in the United States Navy Reserves for, four (4) years. He was a member of American Legion Post 67, the Murat Shriners, and Blue Lodge of Noblesville.
Kenneth was a very loving husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. He looked forward every year to traveling to Arizona with Patricia during the winter months after their retirement. He enjoyed watching Nascar and Indy car. He was an avid Dale Earnhart fan that never missed a race. One of his favorite past-times was watching his sons and grandchildren play sports.
He was heartbroken after Patricia passed away last year and had not been the same since. His family will miss him dearly but they take comfort knowing he is celebrating his homecoming with his love, Patricia.
