Kenneth Richard Arrington
  Kenneth Richard Arrington, 93, of Twin Falls, Idaho passed away peacefully in his sleep on January 22, 2017 at Crestwood Rehabilitation in Ogden, Utah. He was born Nov. 10, 1923 in Twin Falls to Noah Wesley and Edna Corn Arrington.
  He graduated from Twin Falls High School in 1942. Kenneth enlisted in the US Navy in 1944. He served on the USS Louisville and fought in the pivotal sea battle at Okinawa. Kenneth was sealed to Doris Baldwin in the Idaho Falls Temple in 1953 and they settled in Twin Falls. Kenneth worked as a farmer his entire life. Kenneth was active in Republican politics and served as the Campaign Chairman for Rep. George Hansen for five election cycles. Kenneth was also active in the LDS church as an Elder, Seventy, and High Priest. He served faithfully as an Assistant Stake Clerk and home teacher for the Ken and Gay Patterson family. Though Kenneth never had the opportunity to attend college, he was a voracious reader and loved studying LDS Church History. Perhaps what will be most missed about Kenneth will be his wit, self-effacing humor, and the twinkle in his eye.
  Kenneth was preceded in death by his wife Doris Baldwin and son Richard Baldwin. Kenneth is survived by his sons Farlin (mother Juanita Nix),and his sons from Doris including David (wife Anne), Jeffrey (wife Sheryl), Steven, eight grandchildren and three great grandchildren.
