Kenneth D. Bachman

Ken Bachman of Chelsea, Oklahoma, passed away at home on May 31, 2018, after a courageous battle with cancer.

Ken was born on April 22, 1943 to Fairy Christine (Grove) & Clayton L. Bachman in San Francisco, California. He was educated there and at age 16, joined the Army and served four years. Ken retired from Chevron Oil after 30 years of dedicated service as a truck driver. Even after retirement, he continued his strong work ethic by diligently maintaining his home and 10 acres of land. Ken was never afraid of hard work and took satisfaction in a job well done.

Those left to mourn his passing include his caregivers Tami and Dan Fisher (daughter & son-in-law) who moved from Kyle, Texas in December 2017 to spend the last five months caring for Ken & sharing time with him. He is also survived by his son, Jason D. Bachman of Fresno, California, ex-wife and friend, Naomi L. Bachman of Fresno, California, and his brother, Jerry Bachman of Owasso, Oklahoma. In addition, Ken is survived by his aunt, Jean (Grove) Douglass, and uncle, Doug Douglass of Tulsa, Oklahoma, along with several cousins from across Oklahoma.

A private service in the near future will allow the family to remember Ken & celebrate his life.
