Kenneth F. Field II's Obituary
Kenneth F. Field, II, a cherished individual known for his kind, loving, caring, and humorous personality, left us on December 4, 2025 at the age of 52. He was born on March 26, 1973 in Ocean City, NJ to the late Kenneth Field and late Dolores Field (nee Taylor). He is survived and deeply missed by his devoted wife Megan (nee McVaugh) and stepdaughter Kaelyn.
Ken lived a life filled with tremendous passion, love and service towards others. After high school, his kindhearted nature led him to pursue a career in physical therapy so he could help rehabilitate others. He obtained his undergraduate degree from West Chester University and then his master’s from New York Medical College. In the 20+ years of his career, Ken was a rarity in that his empathetic heart remained unjaded by the field and his loving compassion never wavered. He had an emotional connection with each of his patients and never tired of helping others to rebuild their lives.
Ken was Meg’s devoted and loving other half. Over the past 12 years, they shared and celebrated life’s many milestones, yet it was the quiet, everyday moments that brought Ken the greatest joy. Those moments were filled with love alongside Meg, Kaelyn, and their three beloved dogs who were a constant source of comfort, laughter and companionship and eagerly greeted him at the door each night. He also delighted in leaving thoughtful notes to spark a smile and remind loved ones just how cherished they were. Though simple, these gestures carried the deepest heartfelt meaning—not only for Ken, but for the loved ones he’s left behind.
Ken’s radiant smile and boundless energy could light up any room he entered. Through his humor, warmth, and outgoing spirit, he touched countless lives and formed lasting friendships. He was deeply generous and loving, always ready to help anyone in need without hesitation. Those who knew Ken understood that he lived life to the fullest and found great joy in not only working with his hands, but also doing almost anything outdoors, especially tending to his gardens. He loved walking along the shore, camping, skiing, biking, or simply sitting outback by a fire. Ken’s passing leaves a profound void, and his memory will remain in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.
