My sister and I have so many fond memories of Uncle Ken. He was a kind, generous and witty guy who was loved by all. His passion for cars and doing anything Aunt Grace said will be our remembrances.

Rest in peace,

Tracey

Rest In Peace Uncle Ken! You are now with Aunt Grace once again. I will forever keep the memories I have of you. You were the one who gave me my nickname “Fred”, the Friday nights at the race track, the endless sleepovers and the wonderful car rides to Springbank Park. Until we meet again…Love “Fred” xoxoxo

I remember Uncle Ken every time I come down to the house he was always working in the garden or cutting the grass trimming trees or cleaning his cars I would always love to help him when I was younger I have many fond memories of going up to the Mathers property hanging out with my friends up there. He will be sadly missed by family and friends

For the greatest great uncle a young girl could have known,
I will always cherish the Sundays Ken and Grace spent at my grandparents. Bringing two dozen donuts and the LFP.
I always appreciate their love and support for my mother and I. I remember sleeping in that spare room at their house by Harris Park as a very very very young girl.
I remember Kenny sneaking out to smoke his Number 7s in the garage at my grandparents.
I will forever remember the day we sat at the dining room table and Kenny told the story of how he picked up Grace on the square in his awesome ride.
I will forever crave having a sandwich with chips with you both. I always recalled Grace would serve you, always make your meal plate, such a true love.
Mostly, I will miss your knuckle sandwhich shakes.
You will forever be with me.
xoxo

The Mathers side of the family for me was known mostly by my Father (Robert “Bob” Mathers) and I stopping in for visits, during the years I was growing up…he so wanted to keep the connection.

After he passed, it didn’t somehow feel right to just pop in, although I did try that with John and Bridget with my daughter Latisha so she could see or meet some cousins…seems everyone gets busy with life and family connections fall by the wayside, sadly. Do remember Dad taking me to visit Charles Junior, too. It was actually nice when we went visiting. Mostly the only time Latisha my daughter met anyone from Dads side of the family it was at a funeral, sadly…

Remember fondly visiting Aunt Cora and Uncle Art, in Wingham, when I was a child and some of the cousins being there…those were lovely times. Sunday afternoons at the Clinton Raceway, and summertime on Saturday evening when at the cottage we would go see the family at Hanover Raceway, it seemed a tradition. It was his way of visiting with his family. Ray and Eugene where always behind a horse, driving. Great memories for me.

Am sorry I didn’t know Ken better but my thoughts are with my cousins at this time. Warm wishes sent your way, from our family to yours.

Sharon and Latisha Laing
