Y GROESLON KEN EAMES:
Bu farw Ken Eames yn ei gartref, 12 Y Garreg, Y Groeslon ddydd Sul Chwefror 28 yn 74 mlwydd oed. Bu Ken yn byw yn y Groeslon ar hyd ei oes, yn fab i’r diweddar Owen Sylfanus ac Elizabeth Eames. Addysgwyd ef yn ysgolion Y Groeslon, Penfforddelen, a Dyffryn Nantlle cyn cwblhau cwrs yn hen Goleg Technegol Gwynedd ym Mangor. Bu’n gweithio gyda cwmni peirianwaith McKenzie and Brown yng Nhaernarfon am flynyddoedd ac roedd yn un o’r deg o weithwyr a gymerodd y cwmni drosodd ar ol i’r hen ffatri gau yn yr nawdegau. Roedd ganddo ddiddordeb mawr mewn chwaraeon o bob math, yn enwedig peldroed a bu yn chwarwae i nifer o dimau yng nghyngrair Caernarfon a’r cylch pan yn ifanc. Bu hefyd yn helpu i hyfforddi Tim bechgyn Groeslon am gyfnod. Roedd yn falch o’i ardal ac wrth ei fodd yn sgwrsio efo’r hwn a’r llall pan oedd yn mynd am dro o gwmpas y pentref. Roedd yn barod bob amser i dynu coes, cellwair, trafod a dadla ar amrywiol betha. Cydymdeilmir a’i frawd a’i chwaer yng nghyfraith, Jeff a Marian Eames a’r teulu oll yn ei profedigaeth. Bu’r angladd ddydd Iau, Mawrth 11 gyda gwasaneth ym Mynwent Brynrodyn a’r Parch Huw John Hughes yn gwasanaethu. Roedd y galarwyr yn cynnwys y teulu, cyfeillion a chymdogion a threfniadau yr angladd yng ngofal cwmni Roberts ac Owen, Penygroes.
