Ken was born on the 23rd of March 1952 in Kamsack, Saskatchewan and at the age of 5 moved to Saskatoon. He attended Evan Hardy Collegiate and later the University of Saskatchewan. In 1974 Ken obtained a BSc. Chem. Eng. Degree graduating "With Great Distinction" and was recipient of the Governor General's Gold Medal for Academic Achievement. Ken moved to Calgary to work as an engineer with Atlantic Richfield Canada. He was soon transferred to Tyler, Texas where he married, lived, and worked. Upon Ken's return to Calgary and when Atlantic Richfield Canada was acquired by Petro Canada, Ken moved on. He stayed in the petroleum business until he retired in 1999 from Pacalta and then spent the next 15 plus years traveling to Phoenix every winter as a "Snowbird". Ken had many industry and flying friends. Aside from engineering, he loved flying, cooking, and socializing with his friends and his family. He will be greatly missed. Every person in Ken's gracious circle was touched by his presence, generosity, his big heart, charming smile, and quick, keen sense of humour. The arms of peace, love, and comfort now surround Ken and keep him safe for all eternity.
