In loving memory of Kenneth Blagden who sadly passed away peacefully at home surrounded by his family on 11th April 2026.

Dearly loved and missed by his wife Anne, daughters Joanne and Tracey, granddaughters Lauren and Danielle and great grandchildren Penelope, Harriett, Jools, Saskia.

Born in Nottingham, he was one of seven siblings, born to loving parents Elsie and George Blagden. He met his childhood sweetheart, Anne at age 16 and later married in 1959, celebrating almost 67 years of marriage. He was very much a family man, doting on his daughters, granddaughters and great grandchildren and loved being surrounded by the chaos of his family. He took pride in his garden and could turn his hand to anything, often undertaking DIY and decorating for his family. This kept him busy but by his own admission he loved it and was a perfectionist in everything that he did. He took great pride in his appearance, always looking dapper, particularly in his legendary cravats ❤️ He was the best husband, dad, grandad and great grandad we could have wished for and we will miss him always xx

Donations will be greatly appreciated in memory of Kenneth to Nottinghamshire Hospice using his Just Giving page - https://www.justgiving.com/page/tracey-blagden-1777625614949
