Kenneth Goodbrand Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers from Apr. 14 to Apr. 16, 2015.
Ken passed away on Tuesday, April 7th, 2015 at St. Joseph's Hospital in Comox BC. He is pre-deceased by his brother Stewart, sister Kathleen and daughter Nancy (Peter Zieth). He is survived by his wife of 63 years, Mary Wenonah, "Nonah", his brother Douglas (Donna), son Alan (Tracy), four lovely granddaughters; Hilary (Trevor), Laura (Wade), Amy, and Megan, and seven great grandchildren. He will be so sadly missed.

Ken worked for the Bell Telephone Company in Burlington, Ontario for 41 years and retired in 1988. In 2001 Ken and Nonah moved west to where their daughter and son were living and settled in Comox, on Vancouver Island.

His wishes have been fulfilled in that his body has been donated to the Faculty of Medicine at the University of British Columbia to help train the next generation of medical professionals.

As per Ken's request, there will be no memorial service. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Comox Valley Hospice Society.
