KENNETH ARTHUR BEGGS
July 27th, 1951 – November 17th, 2022
Ken Beggs passed away peacefully at the Peterborough Regional Health Centre on November 17th, 2022, with his son at his side. He is survived by his son James (Jay) and aunts and uncles. Ken was predeceased by his father, James (2012), his mother, Lorraine (Reist) (2022) and his ex-wife, Melinda (Cowan).
Ken lived in the Winterbourne, Barry’s Bay and Elmira areas prior to moving to Boulter upon retirement. His long term employment at Northfield Metal Products allowed him to use his inventive skills such that the company was able to register several Patents. His time with Northfield afforded him the opportunity to travel, particularly to Sweden where Jay worked with him. Inherited mechanical skills gave him the ability to develop, repair, alter, or re-purpose many items that he came into contact with. When tools were not in his hands, he enjoyed hunting and fishing.
In accordance with his wishes cremation has taken place and there will be no visitation or funeral service.
