Kenny Javar

May 18, 1986 – Dec. 30, 2022

Minot

Kenny C. Javar, 36, Minot, North Dakota, died on December 30, 2022 unexpectedly.

The family is deeply saddened and shocked by his sudden death.

Kenny Cortel Javar was born on May 18, 1986. He grew up on the Big Island of

Hawaii and graduated from Ka’u High School.

Following his graduation, Kenny enlisted in the U.S. Air Force on July 20, 2004. He

proudly served his country until his honorable discharge on July 19, 2008.

Kenny would say his biggest accomplishment and joy in his life would be raising his

four children: Jaden, Kellen, Kaleah and Makai and meeting and marrying the love

of his life, Jennifer Olson.

Kenny was a small business owner. He owned and operated H2O Images in Minot.

He found joy in using his artistic talent with his technical skills in his business. He

was, also, a technician at Tires Plus in Minot.

Kenny was full of humor, generosity, and kindness, traits that were obvious to all

the moment you met Kenny. He had the best smile and was known to play practical

jokes on his family and friends. He was an avid diver and fisherman. He also had a

soft spot for animals and children.

Kenny is survived by his wife, Jennifer, his children, Jaden (15), Kellen (7), Kaleah (2),

Makai (1), his parents Reno and Josephine Javar, sisters, Dr. Rose (Erich) Schroeder

and Reyna Javar, and his brother, Rey Javar and niece, Kolonahe; father-in-law and

mother-in-law, Dennis and Sun Olson, and brothers-in-law, Mike and Dennis Jr.

Olson.

We will miss him more than words can describe. He was the laughter of our lives.
