Obituary of Kenneth-Adams-Joseph Conrad

CONRAD, Kenneth Adams Joseph - 65, passed away in the Centennial Building of the VG Site, QEII, on March 5, 2008. Born in Halifax, he was a son of the late Ray DeWolfe Conrad and Lillian (Adams) Conrad. Ken attended College Street School and St. Pat's High School. He joined the RCAF and thereafter worked at Wyse Road Esso Service Station with his brother, Graham. He worked for many years as a commissionaire before early retirement due to ill health. He enjoyed landscaping, working in the woods and playing cards. Friends and family will remember Ken as a kind and gentle man, quick to compliment and help others and appreciative of even the smallest gesture or act of kindness shown to him. He was predeceased by his parents, and a brother, who died in infancy. He is survived by his companion of many years, Ellen Munroe; sister, Janet; brothers, Gerry (Mary), Graham (Donna) and Brian (Lil), all of Dartmouth. He is also survived by many nieces and nephews. The family wishes to thank Dr. Tim Matheson and the nurses and staff at 4A of the Centennial Building and at the 9th Floor of the Abbie J. Lane Memorial Building, QEII. Cremation has taken place. By request, there will be no visitation or funeral service. A family burial service will take pace at a later date. Memorials may be made to Canadian Cancer Society.
