December 13, 1931 - August 24, 2020
Kenneth Harold Heinitz was a lifetime resident of Lodi, where he married his high school sweetheart and raised his loving family. You could find Ken as a baseball coach and Boy Scout leader. Ken was an avid fisherman and golfer and enjoyed watching all sports. After retiring from a 30+ year career at AT&T he and his wife Mae traveled the country in their 5th wheel and eventually selected Arizona as a second home.
One of Ken's favorite past times was spending time with his grandchildren and great grandchildren. He will be forever remembered as a sweet, charming, social, proud and loyal man. He lived a long full life and enjoyed his many friends. Christmas Eve at Ken's house was always a special day for the entire family, it will not be the same without him.
