With great sadness, I just learned of the passing of Ken. My sincere and heartfelt condolences to Holly and Megan. I worked with Ken at the Manitoba Research Council and had the opportunity to travel with Ken on a number of business development trips. He was always hard working, committed to his job and had a great sense of humour. We had some good times and I will cherish those memories of Ken. - Posted by: Trevor Cornell (Friend) on: Jan 10, 2022

We are thinking about you Ken and hope to see Holly and Maegan in the Spring so we can remember our happy times together. You were a true character and have left a lasting legacy of memories for us to treasure. I think of you every Friday when I add a carrot to the chicken soup!

My sincere condolences to Holly, Megan, Gail, and Adolf. Ken and I started DMCI together in 1959. We quickly became fast friends and hung together in high school, Engineering, and SPD fraternity. I went west to seek my fortune and geed, while he stayed here and hawed. We drifted apart. When we finally reconnected a couple of years ago he had the same quick wit, wry smile, love of debate and killer sense of humour that everybody enjoyed years ago. I didn't hear him sing, but he used to sing like a bird. He was a true, loyal friend, I wish we had more time to finish our wish list. RIP Ken. - Posted by: Ed (friend, classmate, fraternity brother) on: Nov 11, 2021

Very sad to learn of this from my friend Ed Zuke. I have many great memories of Ken in the frat. Every year at Grey Cup at half time we used to go out in the snow at the frat house and play football. I will cherish my memories of Ken for those 4 years at University. - Posted by: verne johnson (Fraternity brother) on: Nov 06, 2021
