Ken worked in Sudbury for the International Nickel Company as a company physician for 3 years, before continuing his medical studies to become a general surgeon. He completed residencies in Buffalo and Hamilton before arriving in Dunnville in 1962. Ken dedicated himself to the health and care of the community as the sole general surgeon until he retired in 1996. In 2018, the Haldimand War Memorial Hospital renamed the operating room suite in honour of Dr. Mustard and his family. Ken is survived by his wife of 65 years, Beverley (Bell) Mustard and his sons Glen (Dawn) of Toronto and Robert (Karen) of Westfield, New Jersey. Ken was very sadly predeceased by his son John Kevin in 2015. Ken was the proud grandfather of seven grandchildren.Ken was a passionate collector of Canadian art, sculpture, antique furniture, pottery and glassware. He loved attending auctions, galleries and museums both locally and further afield.
