HARRINGTON - Kenneth W. Hughes passed away on Fri., Apr. 12, 2013 at Bayhealth Milford Memorial Hospital. He was the son of the late Roland and Grace Elizabeth Hughes. Mr. Hughes served his country proudly in the United States Marines. He served during the Vietnam War era, but was stationed in Japan during that time. Mr. Hughes worked as a receiving manager for Burris Foods for over 27 years, and as a manager at Sea Watch for 5 years. He was a hard worker, not only at his occupations, but around the community as well. He always took care of the elderly ladies in Harrington with yard work or home maintenance. He was quite the workaholic, and was always just a phone call away. He would help anyone in need. Mr. Hughes was family oriented. Whether it was crabbing or going out to dinner with his sons, spoiling his grandkids, his family was first and foremost. He loved to watch NASCAR and enjoyed going to the American Legion for breakfast on the weekends with his family. He will be greatly missed. Mr. Hughes was a former member of the Harrington Moose #534, and belonged to the American Legion CKRT #7 of Harrington. He is survived by his loving wife of almost 40 years, Bonnie D. Hughes of Harrington; sons, Joshua Wayne Hughes of Harrington and his children Dylan and Jasmyn, Jason Dale Hughes of Harrington and his children Tyler, Lyric, Jayden, Kenny II, and Jayla; brothers, George Hughes of Seaford, Ronald and Roland Hughes both of Greenwood; David, Rubin, Charles, Dennis Hughes all of Harrington, Elwood Lord of Dover; sisters, Patricia Roberts of Ohio, Joann Layton of Seaford, Mary Ann Branham of W. Va. A visitation for family and friends will be Wed., Apr. 17, 2013 from 7 to 9 p.m. at Melvin Funeral Home, 15522 South DuPont Hwy., Harrington.
