Kenneth HAM

HAM, Kenneth Gordon
We are sad to announce to death of Ken Ham on Friday, March 16, 2018. Ken was born in Vancouver on July 13, 1952 and graduated from Killarney High School and the University of British Columbia. After travelling extensively to many parts of the world he returned to Vancouver to work professionally as an accountant. Ken loved to sail and to ski and for many years was very active in the federal riding association of Vancouver Center. Most of all he loved to spend time with his family and friends at three of his favourite places - Bowen Island, Whistler and Savary Island. He lived much of his adult life in New Westminster where he and his wife raised their family. He was a kind and gentle man who will be remembered very fondly by family and friends. Ken is survived by his wife, Nancy Clarke, and his three sons, Kenneth (Arezou), Christopher and Ian and his granddaughter Amarya. He is also survived by his mother Joy, brother Doug (Carmen) and sister Tammy. As well, Ken leaves a large extended family including nephews and nieces Allison, Stephen, Douglas, Elizabeth, Sarah and Camille. We respect and praise Ken for the dignity and fortitude with which he received his diagnosis of Huntington's Disease and his family is grateful for the care and empathy he received from the staff at George Derby Center where he resided for the past five years. Family gatherings to remember and to celebrate Ken's life will be held at later dates on Bowen Island and at Alta Lake.
