“I wasn’t really interested at the time, I just wanted to have fun on the ice’, said Margaret. ‘Ken 
came up behind me and knocked me down. He told me years later that he did it because he wanted 
to pick me up’. 
But three years later, when he was eighteen, he joined the army and had to move to Burma 
where many of his friends were killed. In 1988, Ken 
published a book about his experiences there. He described 
feeling relieved and happy when he finally was allowed to 
go home. ‘Then, I knew I was going to have a life after all’. 
Back home in Northampton, Ken renewed his 
friendship with Margaret. The couple had a six-year 
engagement before buying a house and getting married in 
1937. Then they had two children, John and Brenda. Ken 
became the shop manager at the butchers and Margaret 
stayed home while the children grew up. The couple now 
have eleven grandchildren and twelve great-grandchildren - 
the latest one is only three years old. Two years ago, they 
had to leave their own home because of Ken’s poor health. 
They now live together in a retirement home in Leicester. 
“We have lots of lovely memories but the birth of our two children is the most special’, said 
Margaret. ‘And the best decade for me was when Ken retired in the ‘70’s. His retirement meant 
that we could spend more time together. I love Ken so much. I don’t know what I would do 
without him.’ 
Their son, John, 73, a retired professor of chemistry 
who lives in Austria, has a lot of nice things to say about 
his parents. ‘They are completely devoted to each other’, 
he said. “And my sister and I could not ask for better 
parents”. 
“My mother gave up her life for her family and home. 
Our parents gave us opportunities which they never had 
themselves and encouraged us to do our very best in life.”
