Dad, you never ever complained. You fought a battle that you could not win. You were so brave. God saw you getting weary and a cure was not to be. He put His arms around you, and whispered: Come to Me.
Ken will be celebrated at the United Church in Dalhousie at 11:00 am on Saturday October 6, 2012.
Funeral arrangements are in the care of Maher’s Funeral Home, Dalhousie.
