  • Notes 

    • Kenneth S. McLaren, a well-known Drumbo district farmer, died at his home on the Seventh Concession of Blenheim on Tuesday evening, December 12, in his 82nd year.

      Mr. McLaren had been an active farmer most of his life. A son of the late Mr. and Mrs. James McLaren, he was born at Puslinch where he received his education. He was a member of Willis United Church, Drumbo, and for a number of years sang in the choir. An ardent sports fan, he took great enjoyment in curling.

      Surviving are his wife, the former Annabell Harmer; three sons: James of the Ninth Concession, David of Tillsonburg and Alex on the homestead. Also surviving are four granddaughters, two sisters: Mrs. Mary Lillico of the Ninth Concession and Mrs. Helen Little of Drumbo, and one brother, James McLaren, in California.

      Funeral service was held Friday afternoon at Wilson's Funeral Chapel Drumbo, interment being made in Ayr Cemetery.
