Kenneth âKenâ Varney passed away on November 11, 2020, in Vernon, Arizona, where he lived with his sister, Kathy, and her family. He was born on September 26, 1955 at the old Seaside Hospital to Kenneth and Hattie Varney. He was the proud father to Kendra Jean Varney and Kenneth Marshall David Varney, brother to Therese Varney, Kathy Schlichting (Elwin) and Charlene Varney.
Ken grew up in Crescent City and attended St. Josephâs Catholic School and Del Norte High, where he played basketball and football. After high school, Ken got into logging old growth redwood trees and loved what he did. Ken was a logger for over 30 years, traveling wherever the work was, making friends everywhere he went. He was very proud of the time he spent as a logger, but nothing made him prouder in life than his children, Kendra Jean and Marshall, whom he adored. Anyone who knew Ken knew how much he loved them and how he wanted to be a better man because of them.
