For many years he was actively involved with the St. James Canadians Hockey Club and served as the clubs president 1976 to 1977. Ken was owner/operator of Acme Radiator Service for over 50 years.

Our sincerest thank you to the staff of L7 and to Stella and Michelle for the rides home, and to the dietary staff we got to know so well. Thank you hardly seems enough for all the caring and attention you gave Ken. I wish I could name you all. I must give a special thanks to Debbie Benger, a more understanding and compassionate person you couldnt find anywhere. Thank you for all the friendly talks I had with you and Chris Enns. I will miss you all. Also a special thanks to Kens sister Jean and Fred for all the attention you gave Ken, and for all the help you gave me. It was appreciated more than I can say. Cremation has taken place. As per Kens wishes, there will be no service.
