A man with a very dry sense of humour was Ken!
RIP
Rest in Peace, respected work colleague.
So sorry to hear of Kens passing. Our deepest condolences to all his family. We really enjoyed the many conversations had during the times he visited our farm. RIP
RIP Ken. I have a lot of great memories growing up in Greymouth and spending many hours in the Police station while Dad was working over time. You provided many laughs with your stories and dark sense of humour. Mum was always shocked but still laughed when you fired off jokes and what happened to bad guys when captured. I’ll never forget seeing the bruised faces of the local punks the day after the cowards hit dad from behind with a beer bottle on the bridge. You even removed me from Revingtons one night when I was well under age. You, Dad and the rest of the Greymouth Police team were a force to be reckoned with. I hope you see mum and dad up there and keep them amused.
Our dear mate much love always Ken. As Pork would say “you’ve really done it this time”. Jen, Glen and Jon Fitzgerald.
