Kenneth “Kenny” Wyatt

Loxahatchee, FL - - Kenneth “Kenny” Wyatt, 69, a Gaffney native, passed away at Spartanburg Regional Hospice House after fulfilling his final wish to return home to South Carolina.

The son of the late Belle Wylie Martin and grandson of the late Ella Wylie, Kenny spent approximately 45 years in Palm Beach County, Florida. He and his wife Diane Bradley Wyatt, were building their new home near Gaffney and preparing to return permanently to South Carolina.

Kenny was the retired owner of Wyatt Services, consulting with glass companies throughout the United States and Bahamas. He loved fishing, his fur babies, and was a lifelong Clemson Tiger.

Kenny was preceded in death by his infant brother, Ricky Lee Wyatt, and nephew, Kevin Wyatt.

He is survived by his wife, Diane; sister, Kathy Wyatt Sparks (Keith “Goodbuddy”) of Gaffney; brother, Larry Wyatt (Sandra) of Cowpens; mother-in-law, Betty Bradley; brothers-in-law, Harold Bradley (Kim), Steven Bradley (Linda), and Mark Bradley (Beth); and nieces and nephews, Heather Wyatt, Ben Wyatt, Jeff Bright (Christie), Jason Sparks (Tammy), Trey Bradley (Melissa), Kayla Morris (Brandon), Stevie Bradley, Billie Pierce (Jake), Caroline Phillips (Austin), and Catherine McKnight (Noah); along with many beloved great-nieces and great-nephews.

When Kenny became too ill for ordinary travel, a specialized medical team flew him from Florida to South Carolina so he could spend his final days near family and friends. After 45 years away, Kenny made it home.

In keeping with his wishes, there will be no traditional funeral. A Celebration of Life will be held at the home Kenny and Diane were building upon its completion.

Memorial contributions may be made through “Kenny Wyatt’s Final Wish to Go Home” on GoFundMe to assist with the cost of the private medical transport that fulfilled his final wish.
