I am so sorry to hear this. Ken became my rock 2 years ago when I was struggling. He came and helped me pack up my home and let me live with him for a few months after I mobed back to kamloops. He took care of me. He was such a kind person and just so full of laughter and energy. His humour will be greatly missed. I had known him for 10 years on and off. A dear friend whom i will miss talking with. Most of all the stories he had written will be missed. He had such a brilliantly creative mind with amazing tales he had wrote himself. His heaven vs. Hell was the one he obsessed over the most. Rest in peace. I will forever remember our friendship.
What memories we have of this young man. He will definitely be missed. It was always so nice to see him at Kozy Klean all the years he worked there. He would make a bee line over to say "hello" and was always happy to see us. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time. Love you all very much! Until we see him again...
My heartfelt condolences to you all. So sorry for your loss. Thinking of you and love you. I loved that kidd! From Both my dad and I Kim and Annette
