26.05.1938 – 18.03.2026
Beloved husband of Sandra (dec.) and loving partner to Peggy, father to Andrew and Paul, dearly loved Pop to Nicholas, Emily and Zoe.
Ken passed away suddenly at age 87 years, after a short battle with cancer.
His sons Andrew and Paul remember him as a calm, positive and friendly man. He made time for everyone and especially enjoyed spending time with family.
Ken had a love of travel and sport, especially hockey where he was a player, umpire, administrator and passionate manager and coach. After retiring from a career with Customs, he was a dedicated volunteer at the MCC, Kiwanis, Probus and other community organisations, including The Queenscliff Information Centre.
He enjoyed spending time with the close circle of friends he had whilst raising a family in Lower Templestowe with his wife, Sandra and more recently in Point Lonsdale where he made his home with Peggy.
A private cremation has been arranged, and all the details of Ken’s forthcoming memorial are below.

A very well-remembered gentleman to have worked with in Customs & Excise.
Thank you Ken for the lovely happy times we shared with you & Sandra & your sons Andrew & Paul. Many years have passed since we first met on the beach at Dromana. Although we have not see much of you & Peg lately, distance makes it difficult as we all age. Much love & goodbye, Margaret & Richard Marocco and Denise & Jason Brown
Ken was a great man, he was always so warm and engaging. He demonstrated much love for his family and he made my girls and I feel that we were part of that. I will miss him dearly but will always be grateful to have met him.
A truely great mentor and role model – I feel privileged to have worked with Ken.
Connected through hockey, I had the delight of knowing Ken for over 30 years. An absolute gentleman and a ripping good human.
Andrew, Paul, Peggy & the rest of the family, sending our deepest condolences at this very sad time. We hope to be able to help you celebrate Ken’s life in a really personal way. Kate Morgan & the team at Tomorrow Funerals
