Ken was the loving father of Gary (Marie) of Cambridge, Debbie (Peter Lamarche) of Fonthill, Penny (Tom Crawford) of Cambridge, Glen (Debbie) of West Montrose and Cheryl (Mike Young) of Powassan. He was the proud grandfather of 17 and great-grandfather of 23. Ken was predeceased by his great-grandson Jaxson and by his brothers Wray and Jack Adam.
