Kenneth Mullings
November 29, 1925 - November 15, 2020
Kenneth Wayne Mullings, 94 of Brighton, MO passed away Sunday, November 15, 2020 at the Medical Lodges Nursing Home in Fort Scott. This is a story of a life well-lived for 94 years. Until the end of August, Kenneth lived independently without any assistance, managed all his business affairs, and drove on a daily basis to Wendy's Restaurant for lunch. Kenneth began his life in Brighton, MO and never left. He was a dairy farmer in early years and then went into ranching. He maintained his cattle operation until 2017 when he was 92 years old. He enjoyed hunting, sitting outside on a sunny day, and more recently driving his Kabota with his great, great nephew Sutton, with whom he shared a special relationship. Kenneth enjoyed many loyal friendships developed over the years in a close-knit community. As the years passed and his hearing declined, his friends and neighbors continued to visit and offer their help with whatever he needed. Kenneth will be remembered for his never-ending love and devotion to his wife Hannah of nearly 60 years. His family and friends will remember him for his way of turning a phrase and finding simple pleasure in the country life. While his family and friends will miss him, we know without a doubt that he is now with Hannah and the Lord. Kenneth is preceded in death by his parents, Samuel and Elva Stockstill Mullings; wife, Hannah Belle Mullings; sister, Fern Mullings Bryant; brother, Roscoe Mullings, and other family members. He is survived by a niece, Carla Bryant Farmer, Fort Scott, KS; great niece, Christa and Husband John Horn, Fort Scott, KS; great-nephew, Ryan Farmer, Chicago IL. great-great nephews, Tucker Horn Kansas City, MO, Hudson Horn Lawrence, KS and Sutton Horn, Fort Scott, KS.
