Obituary

Kenneth Zackery was born on November 9, 1956, to Joe Clifford Zackery and Druelle Stubblefield-Zackery in Clearview, Oklahoma. He graduated from Clearview High School and went on to attend Langston University for a year before joining the United States Army, where he served proudly for 14 years. During his military career, he worked as military police and later became a drill sergeant.

After his service, Kenneth relocated to Springfield, Missouri, where he lived with his loving wife of 43 years and raised his beautiful family. In Springfield, he became known as a master mechanic. In his free time, you could find him working on one of his many trucks, barbecuing in the backyard, or enjoying his favorite pastime – fishing on the lake.

Kenneth was preceded in death by his mother, Druelle Stubblefield-Zackery; father, Joe Clifford Zackery; brothers, Joe, Felix, Stanley, and Felton Zackery; and sisters, Kathy and Shirley Zackery.

He leaves to cherish his memory: his beloved wife, Colleen Zackery; their children, Kenisha Zackery (Tim Lambert) and Tenisha Zackery, Alicia Zackery and her four children; his brothers, Frank Zackery (Vaughn) and Mike Zackery (Jackie); sisters-in-law, Edith Zackery and Kathryn Zackery; and a host of nieces, nephews, extended family and friends who will carry his memory forward with love.
