He and Margaret were very devote Christians and were involved in Calvary Baptist Church and then went on to plant other churches which included Aurora Hills Baptist and Smoky Hill Baptist.

He was a member of the American Legion and loved baseball.

Kenneth was preceded in death by his parents Carlton and Anna, his brothers Leonard, George, Ralph, his sister Dorothy, and his son Kevin Mark Kellogg. He is survived his wife Margaret Kellogg, his sister Agnes Jean Drieth, his daughter Jeanette Kellogg-Wawok, his sons Kenneth Kellogg and Keith Kellogg, and his grandsons Justin Fleming and Zachary Fleming.

Kenneth was a very loving husband, father and grandfather. He was giving, thoughtful, patient and soft spoken. He always thought of others before himself. He taught his children the value of hard work, honesty, family and God and country.

One foundational memory shared by his family was every Christmas day, before the kids were allowed to open presents, Kenneth and Margaret would sit the family down and read from the Gospel of Luke the biblical account of the birth of Christ. Christ was the reason for the season.
