KENNETH D. PAILLANT, a gentle soul whose kindness and warmth touched the lives of all who knew him.  Born on January 23, 1995, in Newark, NJ, Kenneth was the cherished first child of Ms. Roberte Emile.  For ten years, Kenneth alongside his loving mother, shared a special bond that was truly special, forming a foundation of love and companionship.

Kenneth is a graduate of Abraham Clark High School in Linden, NJ.  Upon finishing his early schooling, Kenneth went on to pursue higher education which led him to attend Kean University in Union, NJ, where he completed two years of his engineering major.  After his time spent at Kean University, Kenneth’s passion led him to pursue his true passion, which led to taking acting classes and also creating his own clothing line where his artistic talents flourished. 

Throughout his life, Kenneth exemplified humility and compassion.  Despite his quiet demeanor, his presence radiated joy, leaving an indelible mark on those around him.  His infectious smile and laughter brightened even the darkest of days, bringing solace and comfort to his family and friends.

Tragically, Kenneth’s life was cut short on April 27, 2024, when he was struck by a wayward driver.  Though he may no longer walk among us, his spirit lives on in the memories he create and the lives he touched.

Kenneth is preceded in death by his great grandmother, Immacula Nectice.  He is survived by his mother who he loved dearly, Roberte Emile; his grandmother, Marie Jocelyne Emile; siblings; Keyon Clark and Bry’Eille Emile-Clark; his uncles, Dudley Emile (Dominique), and Rodney Emile; his only aunt, Kency Emile; cousins, Kyla Emile, Nolan Emile, and Harlee Emile, along with a host of beloved family and friends he’s made during his lifetime.

Family and friends are invited to his viewing on Tuesday, May 21st, 2024 from 10:00 AM until 12:00 Noon at the Bradley & Stow Funeral Home, 127 Medford-Mt. Holly Road, Medford, NJ, where a Funeral Service will be held at 12:00 Noon.  Interment will follow in the Morgan Cemetery in Cinnaminson, NJ.  (www.BradleyStow.com)
