Ken enjoyed visiting with family and friends as much as he could. He spent most Friday nights with his longtime friend of 55 years Doug Day as well as playing cards with friends Russ and Kim of 31 years.

 

You would always find Ken out in his garage tinkering or fixing something usually for his grandkids, or to make his yard nicer.

I met Ken through my brother Kevin as Ken was either at our house or Ken’s mom and dad’s. Mostly they were at Ken’s. Lol. We had a quite a few friends that all hung out together for years. We had a lot of good times. He will missed greatly. My deepest sympathy to Tracy and Mr & Mrs Baldwin and family. Kurtis Kilmury

I met Ken in grade 4, I was still fairly new to Winnipeg. We were inseparable through elementary and middle school. From working in the garage helping his Dad, helping his Mom do chores around the house and collecting beer bottles in the diches on the gravel roads on the way  to his grandparents farm. I will miss him. Kevin

Having known Ken for 55 years all that mattered was that he was my friend.  When we hadn't talked for some years as at the time we both we're going thru stuff, we met at again at the Crazy Bar on a Friday night and it was like no time had passed. We never let anything happen to keep us apart again until now. Thru the years we both said we were brothers from different mothers. There will never be another friend like him. Never said until his diagnosis but I loved that guy.

Uncle Ken has always been one of the most laid back people I’ve known. We won’t talk about that time I was staying with him and Aunty Tracey and he gave me some kind of crazy rum that put me on my butt 😂 One thing he always did was tell me to go out and do what I wanted and enjoy life on my own terms. He was never one to judge. Thank you for being a part of my life, you will be missed and remembered with fondness, I’m glad your suffering is over💜 I’m sorry we won’t make it back for the celebration. Amanda, Joey, Aunty Tracey, our hearts go out to you.

Can't express 1 memory, there's so many. My first MGD. Pool in the basement, countless fires at their place when Amanda lived there after Dylan was born. So many more
