Actor Kenny Law has died at the age of 68 after struggling with heart issues.
He was one of the stars on Discovery’s Moonshiners series, about Appalachian locals running a 200-year-old illegal alcohol distillery.
The show launched in 2011 and has run for 14 seasons.
Kenny’s cousin Henry Law told TMZ on Thursday that Kenny passed away in a local hospital on Tuesday.
He had been battling several health issues over the last several years.
‘Kenny was dealing with heart trouble for some time, and had a heart attack back in 2024. He also struggled with diabetes, which was a constant factor in his ongoing health struggles,’ a family member told the site.

Kenny also had a blood infection. That led to Kenny’s hospitalization earlier this month.
‘Kenny’s body just wore out after fighting both the infection and his underlying conditions,’ said Henry.
Kenny’s family was with him when he died, shared the site.
The family is holding a viewing on Friday, and then a funeral on Saturday.
Moonshiners star Amanda Bryant paid tribute to Kenny amid news of his passing, remembering him as ‘a true moonshine legend.’
She added, ‘It was an Honor to know you and call you my friend. Rest Easy Big Guy. Prayers for the whole Law family in this time. They are all very good friends of mine and my heart breaks for each of them.’
