Kenneth Ray Dossett

Kenneth Ray Dossett, 76, of Patoka, passed away Tuesday, May 23, 2023 at IU Health Hospital in Indianapolis. He was born August 15, 1946 in Princeton to the late Rex Dossett and Nettie (Morrison) Dossett. He graduated high school in Princeton and later graduated from Vincennes University. Kenneth married the love of his life, Judy (Schwartzlose) Dossett on August 1, 1969 blessing them with 53 years together. Kenneth was a veteran serving in the U.S. Coast Guard for four years, one year in Vietnam. He was a lifetime member of the VFW and DAV and was a past member of the NRA.
