Virginia Beach – Kennith Conn Wagner (Ken), 82, of Virginia Beach, Virginia, passed away peacefully at home on November 4, 2025, surrounded by his daughters, grandchildren, and close family friends. Born on November 22, 1942, in Virginia, he was the son of the late Minor Conn Wagner and Eva Brown Wagner.

Ken lived a full life marked by dedication, hard work, and a deep love for his family. Throughout his career, he took on many roles, he was an Architect / Contractor for Advanced Builders, with his last occupation being an Uber driver. Known for his strong work ethic and genuine care for others, he touched many lives through his service and kindness.

He was preceded in death by his first wife, Linda Croft Wagner; his sister, Connie Mountjoy Wagner of Roanoke, VA; and his step daughter, Valorie Woods Wisecup of Fredericksburg, VA.

Ken is survived by his daughter, Stacy Wagner, her son Matthew Howell, daughter Eva Fields, and grand puppy Ruby Wagner; he is also survived by his son, Michael Wagner, wife Freida, and their son Tyler of Keswick, VA; his daughter, Wende Wagner, partner Roger Montgomery, and their son Jackson of Lynchburg, VA; his step daughter, Wendy Woods of Virginia Beach, VA; and grandchildren Trevor Wisecup and Amber Barnard, children of his late step daughter Valorie.

Anyone who knew Ken knows he was a brilliant architect, a skilled negotiator, and above all, a devoted family man. He would drive hours out of his way to place flowers on the graves of loved ones and treasured every family reunion. He had a passion for cooking (and eating), loved cars, and was a lifelong fan of the Redskins—now the Commanders.

A Celebration of Life will be held on his birthday, November 22, 2025, at 2:00 PM, at Ocean Lakes Church of God, 1200 Dam Neck Road, Virginia Beach, VA.
