He was predeceased by his parents Bob and Mary, brothers and sisters and his dear son Wes McLeod. Ken was born in Dugald on April 6, 1925. He worked for Manitoba Hydro and retired after many years with the C.N.R., Transcona Shops. He had a passion for hockey, playing in his younger days, watching Hockey Night in Canada, and especially taking and watching his sons play, he was their biggest fan. Later on he found much joy in watching his grandchildren in all of their activities. Ken and Eileen enjoyed their time together, cross country skiing and dancing at many old time dances where they made many new friends. He loved visiting and time with his family was very dear to him. He will be sadly missed. A celebration of Ken's life will be held on Tuesday, January 8, 2013, at 1:30 p.m. at OakBank United Church 582 Balsam Crescent in OakBank with Rev.
