In loving memory of Kenneth 'Ken' Ludlow who sadly passed away on 5th August 2025

Ken was a man defined by love, loyalty and a quiet strength. He was devoted to his family, passionate about his football and admired by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

Ken had a gift for humour. It was his shield, his charm,and his way of turning any situation around. Whether he was in a tight spot or just trying to lighten the mood he could always use his cheeky grin to get out of trouble.

A lifelong supporter of West Ham, he wore his claret and blue with pride. Match days were sacred-whether he was at the stadium or watching from home, his passion never wavered. “Come on you irons!” Wasn’t just a chant - it was part of who he was.

He leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter and loyalty - a life well lived and deeply cherished. Though he is no longer with us, his spirit lives on in the hearts of his daughters, grandchildren and all who loved him.

Forever blowing bubbles, Ken.
