Kenneth John Mayo of Memphis, TN passed away from natural causes on July 31st, 2021 at the age of 69. He leaves behind his partner Patricia Mayo, daughters Kimberly Hendrick and Leslie O'Rourke, siblings Terri Thompson and Keith Mayo, grandsons James and Patrick O'Rourke, extended family and many dear friends. He was preceded in death by his son Kenneth John Mayo II.

Ken was a hard working man who enjoyed the simple things in life and being with family and friends. He was always eager to tell a joke and make others smile. Kindness was second nature to him and he always gave more than he took. His best times were spent with those he loved and on his tractor bush hogging.

A memorial gathering will be held at High Point Funeral Home, 3788 Summer Avenue, Memphis, TN 38122 on Tuesday, August 10th, 2021 at 3:00 pm.

In lieu of sending flowers the family asks that you make a donation to the American Kidney Fund in Ken's memory.

"Let no one weep for me or celebrate my funeral with mourning; for I still live, as I pass to and fro through the mouths of men."
