Kenneth Viggo Riis

Passed away peacefully on July 19, 2021 at the age of 77. Survived by his wife Kristin, daughter Naomi (Aaron), son Adam (Nancy), and brother Dave. Proud grandfather of Cole, Alexander and Austin. Predeceased by his parents Viggo and Florence Riis, and brother Paul. Ken was a teacher with the HWDSB, teaching Math at Ancaster High for many years before retirement. Ken will be remembered for his love of nature and hiking the trails of the Dundas Conservation area with his children and grandchildren. His legacy will live on at the family cottage at Inverhuron, and we will think of him with every beautiful sunset over Lake Huron. Heartfelt thanks to the wonderful staff at Emmanuel House for their care and kindness in his final days. Cremation has taken place. If so desired, donations may be made in Ken’s memory to the Emmanuel House, Hamilton. Tak for Alt Ken. https://www.goodshepherdcentres.ca/donate/
