![]() I got in contact with his son Mike Stainsby in 2002 through an entry Mike made in my (unfortunately now closed) Guestbook. He was looking for anyone remembering Ken, trying to find out more. When Mike mentioned the water-colours his father had painted I asked him about showing them on this site. He agreed and scanned several of the pictures for me. You can see the result on this page, a big Thank you to Mike for his help and permission to show the pictures here. Mike died in 2004 from illness, so this page also serves as a memory to him and his friendliness. |
