Obituary
In loving memory of Kenneth Austin Norton who passed away Monday, October 17, 2022 at the age of 57 at his home in Kindersley, Saskatchewan.
Born in Tatamagouche, Nova Scotia, Ken was the beloved son of the late Jean Gayton. He was raised in Malagash, Nova Scotia by his grandparents, the late Clara and Ora Scott. Ken worked for Sandy Ross Well Servicing in Kindersley. Ken previously worked for many years with Seagull Pewter in Pugwash, Nova Scotia where he was very talented as a glass cutter.
Ken will be deeply missed by his family and friends. He loved hunting, farming, kids, animals, watching sports and having a good chuckle with those around him. He was an avid fan of the Toronto Maple Leafs and will forever be cheering them on.

Ken was predeceased by his sister Cheryl Gayton, brother Gary Norton, brother-in-law Allen Langille and great-nephew Kenneth Carde. Special mention to Sandy Ross, Scott Ross, Marie Kapustianyk, Randy Kimiak, Rikki Ross, Ray Borgal and life-long friend Bobby Duggan. The family sincerely apologizes for not acknowledging everyone special to Ken.
