Kenneth S.

Foulds, Sr.

With heavy hearts but joyous memories, family and friends will gather to honor and celebrate the life of Kenneth Samuel Foulds Sr., who passed away peacefully on August 1, 2026, at the age of 73, in the Abbott Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, where he received compassionate care during the last two and a half years of his life.

Kenny, as he was fondly known, was born on September 10, 1952, in Winthrop, and grew up in the Point of Pines neighborhood of Revere. A proud graduate of Revere High School, Kenny made a lasting impact on everyone he met. He settled in Chelsea, where he raised his two beloved sons, Kenneth Jr. and Michael J., and created a tapestry of memories that will be cherished forever.

A dedicated sales representative in the plumbing supplies industry, Kenny’s work ethic was matched only by his passion for life. Even after retiring, he continued to share his expertise and enthusiasm with customers at Home Depot in Everett.

Kenny’s true passion was sailing, and he was a proud and active member of the Chelsea Yacht Club, where he served as Past Vice-Commodore and board member. Known to many as “Captain Ken,” he found immense joy in his sailboat, the “Glass Onion,” and spent countless vibrant afternoons navigating the waters and creating lifelong friendships with his “EWN” crew. His love for the sea instilled in him a zest for life that he shared with all around him.

He has reunited with his beloved son, Kenneth S. Foulds Jr., and his brother, Donald P. Foulds, but his spirit lives on in the hearts of those he leaves behind.

He is lovingly survived by his son, Michael J. Foulds of Lynn, his granddaughter Alysha Foulds and her significant other, Stephen Colling, and his cherished great-granddaughters, Aria and Ava Colling. He will also be deeply missed by his brothers, and sisters-in-law; Stephen J. Foulds, Thomas H. Foulds and his wife Donna, and Julie Ann Foulds. He is also survived by several beloved nieces and nephews.

Family and friends are invited to join in a celebration of life and remembrance for Kenneth on Saturday, September 19, 2026, at 1 PM, at the Chelsea Yacht Club, located at One Broadway, Chelsea. Together, we will share stories, laughter, and love as we honor a man who brought so much joy to the lives of those around him. Let us celebrate his remarkable life and carry forward his legacy of love, laughter, and adventure.
