I have just found out of the passing of Ken. He is a wonderful man and I have great fondness for him as well as for Pat. He remains in my thoughts and may our good Lord cherish him, Glen

I just learned recently about Ken’s passing. I remember him and Pat well from the old days at the Belle View when the upstairs was always jumping. It was a fab pub, full of life and music and Pat especially never stood any nonsense. RIP Ken. Rhonda Davis (formerly Charlton).

Many memories of Ken and Pat mostly getting chucked out the Belle Vue for being underage 😐 but I did have my wedding reception there in the 70s …
Amazing couple …The Belle Vue wasn’t the same without them… I have many amazing memories
RIP Ken and condolences to the family
