RIP Ken Aitken

My brother phoned me last night with the sad news that another human gem has left our shores for fairer lands.............rest in peace Uncle Ken. I'll always remember your wicked sense of humour and kind heart..............and the night you and Uncle Jock (Carr) caught a bunch of us skinny dipping at the town pool - you've never seen a bunch of teenagers scatter so fast, far and wide, some running home butt naked hiding from oncoming cars in every open garage along the way :) what a memory to treasure forever.

To Aunty Rita, Goofy, Kenny and Carol-Anne, deepest sympathy on your sad loss. My thoughts are with you. Lots of love, Delia
