sorry about your loss. I knew his mother and father and Judy well, many years ago I rented a room in their home on Florence and was treated in a wonderful way. Judy would probably remember me well,,Brenda Johnson (Pattison)

My cousin Norm Said told me that Hec was living on borrowed time. It would have been great to say goodbye one last time in person. I first met him in the 1940's, when we all lived on Gladstone & Kent St. A truly gifted athlete in all sports.
My sympathies to his wife & son.

I was very sorry to hear of "Hectors'" struggle throughout his illness.
He was definitely a character, with sports skills that are legend amongst his team mates and opponents alike, and had that dry humour and laugh that was his.
Our condolences to his grieving family.

I will have fond memories of enjoying a good cigar with Hec at the 'The Sports Club' over a 'couple' of beers, while swapping lines from the Bogart classic Casablanca.

I met Kenneth (Hec) at the Ottawa Courthouse. He introduced me to the Ottawa Nepean Canadians Sports Club. Hec was a pleasure to know and his love of the "oldies" was legendary.
A true gentleman, it is an honor to list him as a great friend.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Hec's family at this time.
At this time of loss we can console ourselves by remembering that Hec and “Uncle Kenny” will be reunited.

It is with much sadness that I read about the passing of my old friend Hec. Hec and I grew up together on Gladstone Avenue in the 40's and 50's. We spent many an evening at the Ottawa Boys' Club on Laurier Avenue. He will be missed by all who knew him.
my deepest sympathies.
