I felt sad to learn of Ken's passing but understood what a struggle it was for him to experience cancer and the treatment for it. My wife Pat, I and our children have always treasured connections with the Rapson family. It was a better time when Ken was able to get out for his daily walk, especially at one time accompanied by his dog. That fond image from our neighborhood will always be with me. Donald Draper

A sad surprise to hear of Ken's passing. I always enjoyed being with Ken in our teenage and young adult years. We had a lot of fun then which I shall continue to cherish. Our sincere sympathy to Ken's family. He and I are the same age. Thanks to his sister, Marian, for letting us know of her brothers passing. I suspect Ken is a Legion Member. As a fellow Legionnaire I am certain Byron Legion will have their flags at half mast prior to Remembrance Day in honour and memory of Kenneth Harvey Rapson. God Bless to all.
