    I am totally shocked and saddened to read about Ken’s passing. He and I were classmates in public school. I haven’t seen Ken for many years, as I moved out of town when I got married. I do remember how kind hearted he always was.
    Sending my thoughts and prayers to the family at this sad time. Hold all the great memories close to your hearts..

    I both shocked and saddened to hear of Ken’s passing. I never worried when I had a malfunctioning appliance as I knew that Ken would give a prompt, honest and accurate assessment of what should be done. I will miss his quiet nature and his lovely sense of humor. My condolences to his family.

    I would like to extend condolences to Dawn and Ken’s family. The passing of Ken has left a hole in my life and I am sure in the lives of the people of Goderich. Ken didn’t know the word “no” as he helped people whenever they needed it. Ken and I met through Scouting many years ago and I have good memories of all the times we camped together. He will be greatly missed. RIP Ken.

    So sorry to hear of Ken’s passing. He was my Scout leader for several years and I have fond memories of camping trips with Ken, both around Goderich and further afield. He was a patient leader, and a great role model. It’s been years since I saw Ken, but still think of him often. My condolences to the family.

    Ken was the best customer service man we have ever had the privilege and pleasure of working with. He would always inform us of what needed to be done (and what didn’t!) and why. You just knew you could trust him to do the job right and as quickly as he possibly could. We also enjoyed his thoughts on life and always with that little smile of his. When we returned to Goderich, he greeted us as if we had never left. His genuine humanity will be sorely missed by all who knew him.

  22. Trish Doherty

    November 14, 2019 at 2:37 AM

    On behalf of Jeff & myself, I wish to extend our sincere & deepest sympathies to the Cutt family. Ken went above & beyond when it came to his customers. They were family to him & we were lucky to be part of that family.

    Surprised at this very sad news of Ken Cutt passing.
    Ken was always prompt, honest, friendly and helpful over the years when he came to our house to repair our household appliances including our dishwasher, stove, washer and dryer. Ken always had a smile and a friendly & kind disposition.
    A few years ago, Ken even took our call at his home one Christmas when our stove was on steroids and just wanted to keep on broiling while we were all set the next day to cook our turkey. Ken gave a few suggestions which to this day still has our stove working in good order.
    We will miss Ken and the memories of his good and kind service.
    God bless Ken Cutt!
