George J. Kennedy, 83, of Ruckersville, Virginia passed away on June 19, 2023 at Martha Jefferson Hospital. He was born on January 17, 1940 to the late Hugh and May Kennedy. In addition to his parents, he is preceded in death by his wife, Lillie Kennedy, step daughters Sharon Ann Knight and Gail Knight, and brothers Wallie and Maynerd Kennedy.
George served in the United States Air Force where he was stationed in Iceland for many years. He was a member of the Elk and Moose Lodge, along with Clover Leaf Square Dance Club. He was also a member of the Evergreen Church of the Brethren where he was the organist for many years; he enjoyed playing all kinds of music, especially his guitar. After retiring from Sperry Marine as a Field Engineer, George loved spending time with his nieces and nephews.
