John do you know the cause of death…. I had a long standing relationship with Ken. 40yrs ago. . I have some memorabilia from his day’s racing at Homebush…plus photo’s of him and his dad coming second ???? at the police cycling championship…third in the team event with Barry Klyne…. I thought that maybe DANE or KIM might like these. have no connection except that Ken and partner lived at Tea Gardens….regards Robyn Hobson
RIP brother in blue
Information on Ken’s cause of death..plus address even though it is more than a year ago to pass on condolences and photos memorabilia to next of kin
