It is with deep sadness that the family of Ken Grills announce his passing on Friday, May 12, 2017, in his 91st year. Ken was an avid outdoorsman. His love for hunting and fishing was only surpassed by the love he had for his family and friends. His smile, quick wit and playful nature are just a few of the many qualities that he possessed that made him such a kind hearted and likeable person. Loving husband of 69 years to Corinna (Courneyea). Loving father of Glen (Margaret), Janet (Bryan), Don (Nancy), Dianne (Gord), Joanne (Dexter, Bonnie (Kirby) and Gwen. Predeceased by his daughter Linda. Proud grandfather of 19 grandchildren, 25 great-grandchildren and 2 great-great grandchildren.
