Please join us in congratulating Ken Eaton, who has been selected as this year’s recipient of the June Callwood Circle of Outstanding Volunteers award. This is a tremendous honour and a well-deserved recognition of Ken’s dedication, compassion, and commitment to hospice care.
This prestigious award recognizes hospice volunteers across Ontario who exemplify the spirit of compassion, generosity, and service that lies at the heart of hospice work. We are very proud to have Ken represent our hospice and our community through this meaningful recognition.
Ken has been an incredible part of the Oak Ridges team, making a meaningful impact as a Kitchen, Maintenance, Volunteer Trainer, and Community Ambassador Volunteer. He consistently goes above and beyond—picking up extra shifts, arriving early, staying late, and stepping in wherever needed, even during holidays or busy times.
In his short 2 years, has contributed over 900 hours of service!
He brings genuine care and attention to every interaction. Whether with residents, staff, volunteers, or families, Ken has a remarkable ability to make each person feel seen, heard, and supported. In the kitchen, he prepares meals thoughtfully, often adding a personal touch that residents notice and appreciate.
Ken’s awareness, kindness, and hands-on approach help keep everything running smoothly. His contributions consistently reflect the values of Oak Ridges, bringing warmth, dedication, and a positive spirit to every part of his work.
Thank you, Ken, for everything you do!
