Kenneth GRAYSTON

June 23, 2011

GRAYSTON, Kenneth Richard. 1925 - 2011. Passed away peacefully in his 86th year at Weatherby Pavilion, P.A.H., White Rock on Thursday, June 23rd, surrounded by family. He will be sadly missed by his wife Betty (Sibson) of 58 years and sons Jeff, Paul (Janie), David (Donna), grandchildren Trevor, Taylor, Emily and Spencer. Ken was the last of a large family (Kay, Ted, Eric, Mary), all born in Vancouver to Richard and Ethel (Hayward), plus many nieces and nephews. Many thanks to all the caregivers and Dr. Perold who all helped us along this journey. Ken served overseas in WWII, then lead long careers in Ship Chandlery with brother Ted, duty free liquor sales (Sumas and Blaine, WA) and finally a home based parcel and shipping business (Blaine, WA). Many retirement summers spent in Birch Bay, WA and winters in Yuma, AZ are fondly remembered. A celebration of life for Ken is to take place later this summer. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Stroke Fund of White Rock or charity of your choice.
