BROADFOOT, Kenneth William. It is with heartfelt sadness that the family advises of Ken's passing on New Years Eve, aged 99 years, and surrounded by the love of his family. Dearly loved husband of Zoe and Lyn (both deceased). Adored and admired father of Kevin, Karen, Danton, and Michael and Jeffrey (both deceased), and loved father- in-law of Melanie, Jeff, Midori, Georgina and the late Richard. He loved and inspired his five children,13 Grandchildren and 16 Great grandchildren, who returned his love unconditionally. His legacy of love, laughter, wicked sense of humour, common sense and a genuine gentle man will live on in all of us for generations. He was a loyal friend to many. How blessed we were to have him for so long. Rest in peace dear Pops. A private service has been held. Donations to Mercy Hospice would be greatly appreciated as they cared for Dad with gentleness and dignity and were angels on earth.
