Aboriginal Elder at my work.

Ken suffered a major heartattack last night...he was sent to Winnipeg where he then suffered a stroke.

 

He passed tonight at 5pm.

 

His kind gentle spirit will be remembered. He was devoted to educating young aboriginals in their culture and always had time for us who wanted to learn about it.

 

He and his wife were raising their grandchild and he is a classmate of my little Courtney.

 

We will miss you Ken......

Sorry to hear of the loss of your friend Rick. This is a sad thing to have happen at any time but the time of year seems to make it that much more difficult for his family and friends.
