Ken was one of two children, he was born in Haileybury, Ontario on May 7, 1930 to the late Henry Watson and Elizabeth James and was the beloved husband of the late Edna Watson for 49 years. He was a brother to Thorpe Watson (Sharon Mepham). Ken will forever be remembered by his beloved children Heather (Paul Piltzmaker) and Cheryl (Stephen Desabrais), his treasured grandchildren Matthew (Bobbilee), Nicholas, Liam and great granddaughter Aria and many nieces and nephews. Ken will also be missed by countless other friends and family whom were blessed to know and love him. He was a wonderful man with a great sense of humour, a love of music and a smile that would light up a room. He was loved by many and will always be remembered.
The family wishes to express their appreciation for the care and dedication of the staff at The Ottawa General Hospital and the Waterford Retirement Residence, their names too numerous to mention, but never forgotten.
