  • I have known Ken for over 13 years. Ken was a very loyal customer at our kiosk getting refills for his printer. He was always happy, shared many jokes and stories. He loved speaking of his time when he served in Korea as well as when he worked as a corrections officer. Ken would chat-up anyone who came around! He was a charmer, well loved. . He was a very generous man often buying staff a coffee or hot chocolate. He will be missed! - Posted by: Bernard Beaudry (Friend) on: May 14, 2015
