Kenneth was born in North Augusta, SC. On January 20, 1940 to Henry Pierce and Marian Farmer.
Kenneth served in the Air Force and was a graduate of the University of Georgia. While attending Georgia, he married the love of his life, Birdie Mae Flemister.
In 1980 his love of art lead him to start his own company, Kenneth Farmer Advertising (now known as Farmer Signs). He soon became well respected in the real estate community. In 1986 Kenneth received a patent on the popular design of his real estate signs and now services more than 750 real estate companies nationwide.
Along with being a very successful business man, Kenneth was also better known as the President of “Department of Having a Good Time” Kenneth loved his family and everyone he came in to contact with. He was a great friend, loyal husband and compassionate father/grandfather. He was a legend and lit up the room with his funny stories and quick wit. Our loss is heaven’s gain!
He is survived by his wife, Birdie, sister Sidney Knight Lisk (Raleigh, NC), son, Bryan (Rachel), daughter Kim Allen (Brett) and four grandchildren, Kyle, Nicole, Ashley & Dawson.
He was predeceased by his parents, Henry Pierce and Marian Farmer, brother, Wayne Farmer (N. Augusta, SC).
