Ken was an aggressive sales person, whether it be in farm equipment, insurance or auto sales. He was a high achiever and won many awards as a result. In his later years before retirement, Ken had worked at Canadian Motors. He had a superb knowledge of cars as he could tell the type, the year and what they were worth by just a quick glance. Ken had a passion for life and loved to live and tell stories. A Celebration of Ken's Life was held at the Brockie Donovan Chapel on Tuesday, April 27, 2010 at 3:00 p.m. with The Very Rev. Robin Walker of St. Matthew's Cathedral officiating. Donations in memory of Ken may be made to the Heart & Stroke Foundation, Unit 3-824-18th Street, Brandon, MB, R7A 5B7 or to a charity of choice.
