J.P. Kenaston Obituary

J.P. Kenaston, a much beloved son, passed away at his home on July 8, 2025. J.P. was a caring gentle soul who will be forever missed.
J.P. attended CSAS and graduated from Notre Dame High School. He attended UTC and Chattanooga State. He was fortunate to have a twenty-six-year career at Lupis Pizza Pies as a house accountant. Lupi's was a second family to him, and he treasured his friendship there.
Music was his passion. He played several instruments, including bass guitar. His knowledge of musicians and their work was encyclopedic, and he loved sharing that knowledge. He was a voracious reader. His dog, Thurber, was another passion and was his constant companion.
