Kenneth DAVIES-LASENBY Obituary

Razzmatazz Lazz: Known as Ken Davies-Lasenby on the census, has crossed the centre line to join the breakaway on the other side, surely to be called out by The Great Commissaire and cheered on by Robyn, Blair, Jake, Lauren, Ethan and grandson Lochlan. His memory, sense of humour and collections of cycling history carry on with his family, who will be toasting beers and marshmallows at a private cremation.

Laz, got word today of your passing, sad to hear you have rode off into the sunset.
It was an absolute pleasure to have worked along side you over the years, a hard grafter with a big heart.
You were a giver, great mentor to many. Grab a tall drink at the bar in the sky and a big cheers from us all at Industrial Controls.
Keep a watch out for family who will miss you greatly.
Great memories Laz
Dave Stickings.
