  3. I met Ken, the Senior Dairy Supervisor, when I joined the Ag Department in Leongatha in 1980. Ken was always friendly and jolly, with a sprightly sense of humour, and I’ll miss him. His positive attitude always shone through, although he did admit to me recently that growing old wasn’t all it was cracked up to be! Vale Ken.

  7. Best happiest and wittiest cousin ever. So glad we had time together recently. We both remembered so well the New Years Eve in Maryborough, I think I was fifteen but my Dad loved Ken so I was allowed to go, Mum wasn’t so sure! But of course you charmed them!
    Sincere sympathy to all family members
