Kenneth Walter Jahns (Ken)

Obituary

Passed on November 14, 2021

March 15, 1967 – November 14, 2021      With broken hearts we announce the sudden and unexpected death of our beloved Ken on Sunday, Nov. 14, 2021 at St. Boniface Hospital from complications of pancreatic cancer.

He will be dearly missed by his Mom Shirley, his sisters Pat (Dan), Phyllis (Ted), and special good friends Donovan and Dave. He also leaves many relatives along with several step sisters and step brothers. We have lost you far too soon, Ken. He was predeceased by his Dad, Walter in 1991 and his Step Dad, Len Mulvey in 2008.

Ken lived life on his own terms with an entrepreneurial spirit. His great sense of humour never faltered, always entertaining those in his company with witty remarks and observations. He loved sports and had a soft spot for animals. As a child he wanted to take in every stray dog and cat he found. He had a special knack with electronics and was adept at solving problems with devices. He was never happier than when playing around with computers and such. He was very appreciative of the wonderful care he received at St. Boniface, HSC and Riverview facilities.

Ken received his education at Balmoral, Argyle and Stonewall schools. For several years he was actively involved with the family business, Jahn’s General Store, Balmoral and in 2002 moved to Winnipeg.

Cremation has taken place and there will be no funeral service. In memory of Ken, memorial donations may be made to CancerCare Manitoba, 675 McDermot Avenue, Winnipeg, Manitoba, R3E 0V9 or a charity of your choice. Love you always, Ken and will forever miss you. Till we meet again little fellow, as Grandma used to call you.
