Kenneth Wayne Harvell, 69, of 2178 Clyde Harvell Road, died at his home on Tuesday, May 23, 2023. He was born to Clyde T. Harvell and Sarah Lee Gregory Harvell in Rock Hill, SC and raised in York, SC. Kenneth was a roofer and master carpenter who loved making and building things, both professionally and for his personal enjoyment. He loved the outdoors and country living and cherished the beauty and peace of the woods. He enjoyed reading his Bible, playing guitar, and visiting his children and grandchildren whenever possible.
