I had the privilege of working with Ken at #9 and #2 and it was indeed a privilege to work with a fire fighter so conscientious. He was thoughtful and caring off the job as well and kept in touch with me over the years. A good friend and taken far too soon. I will miss him.

On behalf of the Edmonton FireFighters Memorial Society, Please accept our deepest condolences on Ken's passing.

Although I never had the opportunity to work with him, I have been told how well respected Ken was on the Fire Department for his leadership and how he cared for the people that he worked with.

We want to give your family time to grieve your loss but if you could please mark Sunday Sept 11th 2016 on your calendar, as that will be the day of our Annual Remembrance Ceremony.
It will be the day that we remember all those members that we have lost in the past year.
It is also a very special ceremony as we have the family members of those members involved in the event itself.
It gives us all a chance to say goodbye and it helps with the closure as well.

If I could have a family member to contact me at 780-619-1564 or at [email protected] then I can get back to them and we can talk about arrangements for this years ceremony.

In closing, please accept our deepest condolences on your loss and know that Ken will be missed by many.

Ken was a leader on the shift at #9 Station when I first joined the Fire Service, and led by example. Throughout our careers and times enjoyed in the outdoors, he remained a man whose principles were ones to be followed. I will always remember and try to live up to your example.
