Obituary of Kenneth Richard Stange

Stange, Ken, born in Chicago, Illinois in 1946 died peacefully at home with his family at his bedside. He had been ill for a few years but continued to work and write as cancer took its toll. He was predeceased by his mom and dad and had no other family than the three of us: his wife, Ursula; his son, Christiaan; and his daughter, Kate. He was overjoyed at the birth, to Kate and her husband, Jonathan, of his grandson, Yitzhak, in early 2013. He felt very strongly that life was a gift and the only possible response was gratitude and reciprocation. He used his gift to enrich his family, his community and his writing. We are grateful for his time with us. Ken would have welcomed donations to Amnesty International Canada, PEN Canada or the Canadian Civil Liberties Union.
