April 10, 1947 - March 8, 2023

The original self-proclaimed “fat tire flyer”.

Born in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, son of John and Dorothy Croxford Of Trenton, Ontario. Oldest of five: Ray(Patricia), Bruce (Murielle), Valerie Hamilton (Richard) and Carol Wade (Mark).

Ken was raised on various Canadian military bases in England, Alberta and Ontario.

Ken found and married Agnes McDonnell from Stratford while working as manager at an A & W restaurant. He was the proud and loving father of two children, Katherine and Joseph (married to Katelyn Badcock) and grandfather of Connor and Charlie who especially appreciated his quirky sense of humour.

He finished high-school as a mature student and attended Carleton University before embarking on a career as a Design and Technology teacher in Toronto for 27 years. After retiring from teaching he started a second career working in bike shops in Toronto and Canmore, Alberta.

Ken discovered cycling in his 30’s, and it became his mission to share his love of biking with everyone he met. He pioneered many cycling programs in the City of Toronto for disadvantaged kids, school groups, adults, commuters and police.

His journey came to an end surrounded by family and comforted by tales of his biking escapades.

Join the family for a celebration of Ken’s life at the Low & Low Funeral Home, 23 Main St. south Uxbridge, on Sunday, March 19, 2-4 p.m.

Memorial gifts can be made to the Sunnybrook Hospital Foundation, Toronto or the Oak Ridges Hospice, Port Perry.
