Kenneth Mark Roney
1942 – 2019
It is with great sadness we announce the passing of Kenneth Mark Roney on Tuesday, June 4th, 2019, with his family by his side, in Moose Jaw, SK after a short but courageous battle with cancer. Ken was born at Imperial, SK on April 28th, 1942 to Ralph and Mary Roney. He was predeceased by his parents; sisters, Sal Winona Semple and Linda Luypaert; brother, Gordon Roney; brothers-in-law, Gerald Luypaert and Max Slater; granddaughter, Autumn Roney; and in-laws, William and Wanda Springer. Ken leaves to mourn his passing, his wife of 52 years, Loraine; sons, Aron Roney (Marlene) and Jason (Tracy) Roney; daughter, Stacey (Brad) Moser; his beloved grandchildren who he was so proud of: Kalen, Brennan, and Elizabeth Roney; Alyssa, Brooklyn, and Hailey Roney; and Bailey, Jadyn, and Adysen Moser; sisters, Terry Slater (Ken) and Judy (Don) McGowan; brother, Gerry (Carol) Roney; brother-in-law, Ian Semple; in-laws: Aldene (Glen) Campbell, Sandy (Bill) Crawford, Len (Patti) Springer, and Dave (Della) Springer; as well as many nieces and nephews. Ken loved being a business owner and working at the lumberyard. He appreciated all the people who came into his life because of it but his first love was his family. He worked so hard but always put family first. Ken would go without new shoes or a new truck, but made it a priority to create special family time with his kids and later all of his grandchildren. Whether it was our annual trip to Clear Lake, Disneyland or Florida, he loved taking part in pool antics, card games, and the occasional ice cream treat. Ken was never one to pass up a good round of golf with his family or long-time friends. He was happiest when he was able to BBQ for his family and friends. He was always generous with his time, drinks and jokes. Ken was the kindest, most generous and genuine person we had the privilege to know. Words cannot express our gratitude to Dr. Geyer, Dr. Miller and the incredible staff at Pioneer Lodge for the professional care and compassion shown to Ken and the entire family throughout this difficult journey! A Celebration of Ken’s Life will be held on Monday, June 10th, 2019 at 1:00 p.m. in Hillcrest Apostolic Church, 1550 Main St N, Moose Jaw, SK with Eleanor Akins officiating. As an expression of sympathy, donations in Ken’s name may be made to the Moose Jaw Health Foundation, 55 Diefenbaker Drive, Moose Jaw, SK S6J 0C2 or the Pioneer Lodge Palliative Care Room, 1000 Albert St, Moose Jaw, SK S6H 2Y2. Arrangements are entrusted to Moose Jaw Funeral Home, 268 Mulberry Lane. James Murdock, Funeral Director 306-693-4550

Sending our thoughts and condolences to you Loraine, Aron, Jason, Stacey and families. We were very sad to hear this. We feel a heartfelt connection to your family as Randy and I grew up in that lumberyard in Briercrest. Ken was always there with his big laugh and always having that grin. Lots of memories for sure. Ken always called dad “Wedhorn” never Lee and I can still hear that even today – those two had quite the conversations over the years! Ken will sure be missed as he was always ready to stop and talk and was friends with everyone. A very special person and a great man. Hugs to you all. Ronda and Randy
