Mr. Joseph Kenas, a 69-year-old resident of Abington Township, passed away after striking a pothole while riding his bike on Morris Road in Fort Washington on Tuesday, March 10, NBC10 reported.

According to their coverage, Mr. Kenas died after being declared brain dead on Friday, March 13 after spending several days in a Philadelphia hospital. He was a father of three and grandfather of five.

“We were there in the hospital. They wanted to do an MRI to check for brain activity, and once we got results, we knew that his life was lifeless and there was no brain activity,” Stephen Kenas, his son, told NBC10. “And that’s when we had to make the call. And that’s really hard.”

The family said Mr. Kenas’ funeral is this Friday.
