Kenneth Wayne Radley, 62, died peacefully in his sleep at home on Oct. 9, 2022. 

Ken was born May 27, 1960, in Lake Charles, LA to Bobby and Earline "Sam" Radley. He was raised in Kansas and southern California, and moved to Harrison, TN in the late 1990s.

Ken was a veteran of the U.S. Navy during the only three years the United States was not at war, around the end of the Vietman era. He loved outdoor sports, snowboarding, cycling, trail running, stand-up paddle boarding, swimming, and more.  Ken was an avid sportsman, completing the Ironman in Panama City Beach, FL. In 2007, Ken founded Scenic City Multisport and created many races including Scenic City Triathlon, Scenic City Duathlon, and 7 Bridges Marathon. His sporting events provided Chattanooga, as well as many cities nationwide, with family friendly outdoor fun, raising money for charitiable organizations or in memory of others. 

Ken helped his sister Karen raise her daughters, Andrea and Loretta, and he was known as Uncle Radley, although he was always "dad" to her daughters as he was very active in their daily lives. When Loretta was deployed with the U.S. Army and Tennessee National Guard, Ken would send the most amazing care packages on a regular basis filled with homemade Rice Krispy treats, Slim Jims and a mountain of other packages goods, assuring she would always enjoy a taste of home.

Ken was passionate about helping people to challenge themselves to complete a race and he would walk alongside you if you needed that push to keep on going, or trail behind you so you were not the last person to finish. He changed lives for the better. He was loved by many and his cheerful "can do" attitude will be deeply missed. 

Ken had a stroke on Feb 1, 2021 and later that year decided it was best to let go of Scenic City Multisport to focus on any remaining time he had to help himself and his family. 

Ken was preceded in death by his parents, Bobby Steve and Gladys Earline Radley.

He is survived by his brother, Gene Radley; sister, Karen Radley; nieces, Loretta (Jimmy Moore) Clabo, and Andrea Clabo.

The family is planning a military service and will announce a service at a later date.
