Kenneth Boyd

January 9, 2021

Kenneth R. Boyd, age 70, of Pittsburgh peacefully passed away on the morning of Saturday, January 9, 2021 with his daughters by his side. He was the son of the late Raymond and Grace Boyd. Dearly loved father of Lisa (Dave) Legleitner and Melody Boyd (Brian) Bestic; recently preceded in death by their mother Sherry K. Boyd. Very much loved grandfather of Brian (Meaghan), Boyd, Darius, Brooklyn, Tori, and Bryce and proud great-grandfather of baby Brian. Brother Ken was one of eleven siblings. He was a simple man that enjoyed caring for his beloved cat George and pet rock, feeding the birds and pretending to have the Indy Flu when NASCAR racing came on. A hero and their protector, he was to his daughter’s; a role he played to many but especially to his deeply saddened little brother Michael Boyd. Kenneth earned his Combination Welding Course Diploma from the Engineering Institute of America, Inc. on June 6th, 1969 and retired as a Roofer. He was loved tremendously by those who knew him and will be truly missed by family and friends. He will always be remembered as a man who had a gentle soul and the kindest heart. There will be no visitation. Arrangements by Lawrence T. Miller Funeral Home, Inc., Bellevue.
