    So sorry to hear of your loss. As a distant cousin, Kenneth was very generous in sharing some of his vast genealogy research with me. I hope that someone in the family treasures it and carries on with his work. May he rest in peace. Take care.

    Deepest sympathies to the family. He will be deeply missed by myself and the rest of the Nasagiweya Historical Society.

    Ken was a valued friend and active member of the Grosvenor Lodge community for many years ~ he always had a smile. Sincere sympathy to the family.

    Ken was very knowledgeable of our Nassagaweya township. He was so gentil and fruendly, smiling and liking people. Rest in peace dear Ken, you deserve your rest.

    Just heard of Ken’s passing now, courtesy of BJ and the Geezers’ newsletter. So sad. One of the nicest people I worked with there — and it was a newsroom filled with nice people (for the most part) so that speaks to how kind, gentle and simply good a person Ken was.

    John and I have enjoyed having
    Kenneth visit our home where some of his ancestors lived on the Guelph Line. We will miss hearing his historical stories of Nassagaweya.

    Ken was a good friend from London Jazz and Ontario Genealogiy Society. I am sorry that I only heard of his death today, Apr 25. We enjoyed beers together during jazz gigs.
    My sincere condolences to you, his family.
