Kenneth Alvin Barham, aged 69, passed away on March 23, 2025, in Walnut Ridge, Arkansas. Born on April 28, 1955, in Rector, Arkansas, Kenneth was a man whose zest for life was as vast as the landscapes he loved to explore. Kenneth's sense of freedom and adventure extended to the open road, where he felt the thrill of the journey riding his beloved motorcycle. His love for the natural world was rivaled only by his passion for storytelling. As an adult, he made his home in Strawberry, Arkansas, a place that was close to his heart and provided him with endless inspiration for his many outdoor adventures. An avid hunter and fisherman, Kenneth found solace and excitement in the quiet waiting and the sudden thrills that the woods and waters offered. His friends and family often found themselves wrapped in laughter and wonder as he regaled them with tales from his expeditions, each story more captivating and embellished than the last. Kenneth's humor was infectious, and he was known as the quintessential jokester, always ready with a quip or a prank that left everyone chuckling.

Kenneth was preceded in death by his parents, Jessie and Iva Jean Barham; wife, Mary Joyce Barham; daughter, Terri Jo Barham; and brother, Dennis Barham.

Survivors include his son, Kenneth Lee Barham; daughter, Tanya Mansfield; brother, Darrell Barham; sister, Sandra Jetton (Lee); grandchildren, Cynthia Barham, Kirsten Mansfield, Austin Nunnery, and Mason Nunnery; great-granddaughter, Samara Battle; and his significant other, Jonelle Stephens.
