Kenneth Allen Boody, 68, passed away from cancer at Maine Medical Center in Portland, Maine, on Monday, September 26, 2022. He was born in Camden, Maine, August 11, 1954. After graduating from high school, he enter the Army to seek out answers to his oldest brothers death in the Vietnam War. After release he worked many roles from the department of transportation to selling lobsters to the locals. Fishing in any time of year was a favorite pastime and he would go to Lily Bay at Moosehead Lake with his parents, or even Rainbow Lake with his brother, Wayne. In 1981 he married Susan Dyer (Jonason) and they had two beautiful children, Adam and Amanda. In the 90s he was employed with Monroe & Goodwin Inc. as a lead carpenter for nearly two decades before retiring. He built his cabin in the early 2000s where he was a keeper of his land, that he hunted, and gardened. A marksman, he tagged many deer over his life and had them proudly displayed. He always had a story to tell and a spark in his eye when talking about the does that would roam his yard and that once gave birth to a fawn right outside his window, or his stories of working on Megunticook Lake and his Carpentry days. He was predeceased by his parents, mother, Madonna Wentworth Boody, May 8, 1990, and father, Kenneth Earl Boody, July 4, 2005; his brothers, George Boody, August 1969, and Wayne Boody April 7, 2009.
