On Wednesday, April 11, 2018, Kenneth Lee Potter of La Paz County, Ariz., departed from this earthly realm. Born in Lynchburg, Va., on July 2, 1954, Kenneth was the son of the late C. W. "Red" Potter Sr. He was educated in the Lynchburg city schools. During his youth he had a notable curiosity about how things work and many times he would use reverse engineering to further his practical knowledge. In 1972 he enlisted in the Virginia Army National Guard and subsequently the regular Army serving honorably in the communications career field. After his military service, he worked as a private contractor and consultant in the communications industry. Left to mourn his passing are immediate family -- sisters, Mary Ann (Mrs. John Nance) and Rachel Marie (Mrs. Philippe Tondi); niece, India; grandniece, Emma; and nephew, John. His life, adventures and his faith in God will always be remembered by his family, friends and business associates.
