Ken and Kay shared a love of square dancing and were active in the square dancing community for many years. Ken was a local caller and loved nothing more than to teach new dancers. He will be remembered for his quick wit, genuine love of people and his adoration and devotion to his beloved wife. He will be dearly missed by his family and all their lifelong friends.

 

The family would like to extend their deepest heartfelt gratitude to the staff at The Harrison at ELIM Village for their warm and compassionate care. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation in his memory to the BC Cancer Foundation.
