I'll always remember meeting Ken at his sister Vera's 85th birthday. His first words to me were "if I were 30 years younger". My reply "you'd still be too old"! What a fabulous man who will be missed at every Watson family event. The life and soul of parties, I will not be alone in missing you, Uncle Ken. My heart goes to your family, Donelle most of all.

Uncle Ken will always be remembered for his love of life and laughter. He always had the "devil" in him - with a heart of gold. Our thoughts are with Aunty Marie and all the family. The second great totara to fall in the Watson forest.
