Toby Kendall's Obituary
On December 29th 2020 Toby Kendall, loving husband and father, passed away
at age 81 due to complications from COVID-19. Toby was born in Sharon, PA
to Raymond and Mary Kendall. On June 21, 1969, he married Carolyn Kendall.
They had one son, Kevin Kendall, and remained married for 51 years until the
time of his death.
Toby started his adult life by joining the Navy at the tender age of 16
years old with special permission from his parents where he served as a
fireman. A majority of his working life was spent at Reynolds Metals Company
where he was a Millwright working on large machinery. In his retirement he
moved from Portland, TX to Keller, TX to be near his son's family. As his
son moved to Northwest Arkansas he and Carolyn soon followed.
He is survived by his wife Carolyn, son Kevin Kendall, grandson Tommy
Kendall, and daughter-in-law Angel Kendall. Toby will be interred at
Fayetteville National Cemetery. The family request in lieu of gifts or
flowers a donation would be made to the Michael J. Fox Foundation in his
memory to help make Parkinson's, which his wife suffers from, a disease of
the past. (https://www.michaeljfox.org/)
