August 19, 1980 - December 4, 2015
On August 19, 1980, the home of Ken and Ruth Carney was changed forever when they welcomed Christopher Grant Carney into the world. For 35 years, a beautiful story unfolded. It was a story of twists and turns that culminated in redemption. In September of 2015, he returned to la tierra de su juventude, the land of his youth (the mission field), to share the message of Christ with the people of Peru. This mission trip with his father reignited his fervor, passion, and commitment for the Lord. On December 4, 2015, his final chapter on earth came to a close, and his first chapter in heaven began. Left to cherish his memory are his parents; wife Tiffany Thornton Carney; his two sons Kenneth James KJ and Bentley Cash; brothers Michael Carney (Jewl), Barry Carney (Charlotte), Gregory Carney (Sarah); nephews Andrew, Alex and Shine; nieces Alyssa and Phoenix; father-in-law John Thornton; mother-in-law Kim Zuehlke; brother-in-law John Thornton (Niki); and Tiffanys grandparents Ron and Ruth Blatchley. A memorial service will be held in his honor at 3:00 p.m. Monday, at First Church of the Nazarene, with dear friend of the family, Pastor Eric Capaci officiating. A visitation will be held prior to the service beginning at 1:30 p.m.
