Kenneth Stokes

Kenneth “Bam” Stokes lived a life marked by kindness, strength, and compassion.Through acts of service, he made people feel valued and drawn together. Kenneth had a unique ability to bring comfort, laughter, and connection to those around him. To know Bam was to experience generosity and unwavering support. He enjoyed a good joke, took pride in his work and strived to protect and serve those around him.

While our hearts are heavy with loss, we are equally filled with gratitude for the memories, love, and lessons that will remain with us forever. His life made a difference and the impact of his love and character will continue through the countless people he met between Detroit, Atlanta, and Houston.

As we say goodbye, may we hold tightly to the memories shared, the lessons learned, and the love that will never fade. May we honor Bam not only in words today, but in the way we care for one another moving forward.

Kenneth, your life was a gift, your memory a treasure. You are deeply loved, and you will never be forgotten.
