Pam,
So sorry to hear about Ken's death. I know it's very hard watch a loved one suffer. I am sure he is now in better place and finally at peace. I'll always remember watching TV with his head on my shoulder, sound asleep. Take care, Pam, and peace be with you at this hard time.

Mark,
We were both saddened to learn of your father's passing. Unfortunately, we did not know until earlier this morning so missed the visitation and funeral. We fondly remember the times he would visit your home in Manotick and we would have a little chat. What an interesting and charming gentleman! May your own memories of times with your Dad, bring you peace in the days and weeks ahead. Please know you are in our thoughts.

Pam, we were so saddened to hear this news. Ken was a very special guy whom we had only a short time to know, enjoying immensely playing tennis with you both this past few summers! He had a great sense of humour, was a super athlete and fun competitor, with an overall endearing personality. We will miss him. Our warmest thoughts and hugs go out to you. Love, Barb and Betty.

Dear Pam,
I am leaving for Ireland noon on Friday and will be unable to see you. Please accept my sincere condolences on Ken's death. Ken's love for you and his family was always evident when we talked. Ken was a beautiful person and a great engineer and mentor. We had great times together, whether it was having a pint, designing schools, playing tennis, reminiscing on the good old days or the current state of the world. It was a great pleasure for me to know Ken. We have all lost a true gentleman.

I have lost a cherished friend. I will always have fond memories of the good times my late husband, Lucien, and I shared with Ken. In particular, I will miss his friendly demands for "mincemeat tarts" and his warm greeting to me in the French language.

Dear Pam and family. My sincere condolences on Ken's passing. We have lost a great true story teller. I will always remember Ken during our Floridian visits with Ken telling us all about some of his true stories, he always had real good ones, also his great smile and laugh as he told those stories.
