Our Sympathies: Ken Janovicek

The OAC community mourns the passing of Ken Janovicek, research assistant in the Department of Plant Agriculture on Friday, June 23, 2023. Ken was admired for his scientific insight and talents, especially in the area of data analysis, which significantly benefited the Department’s cropping systems research program for over 30 years.  

“Ken was cherished by so many of us for his friendly demeanor, his passion for Ontario agriculture and, probably most especially, for the easy way in which he could engage almost anyone in pleasant and thought-provoking conversation,” says Department chair, Hugh Earl. “He lived his life courageously, and he was an inspiration to all who knew him.”
