Not sure what to say?

Thank you for the many hours of entertainment you have shared with us all. Rest in Peace

My friends and I met Kenny Baker one year and spent several moments during the weekend with him. We even got to dance with him and others from the Star Wars movies. He will hold a fond memory for me forever.

Fancy dress at the caravan park!

Lovely memories of Ken, Eileen, Chris and Kevin from our days at Bradgate Caravan Park, Manston, Kent back in the late 70's/early 80's. Ken and Jack had a summer season on the coast and parked their van next to ours. They came to my 18th birthday party, we visited their house etc. Lovely family. We had fun. God Bless Ken. Reunited with Eileen xx

My 6 year old granddaughter just loves R2-D2 today. R2D2 I believe was one of the best actors in Star Wars He will be missed
