Ken Carreck passed away at home with the love of his family on June 29, 2013.
Born to James and Ivy Carreck in Duncan, BC., Ken was a sculpted outdoorsman who had a deep love and passion for British Columbia. His work hobbies and lifestyle mirrored his desire to explore the province, whether it be behind the wheel, in a boat fishing, on horseback or hiking with his beloved animals.
On Boxing Day of 1972, Ken met his lifelong partner Dianne at a dance, and they were inseparable.
Married for nearly 40 years, Ken and Dianne remained devoted to living their dream; raising their two daughters and enjoying their grandchildren. He was a true family man. We always knew it, felt it, and loved him more for it.
Nature was where Ken felt free to dream, to explore, and to bring people together.
He thoroughly enjoyed socializing with people from all walks of life. His curiosity kept his conversation free flowing with those he enjoyed spending time with.
His last months of life were full, and he was always surrounded by friends and family who loved him and his great sense of humor. A reliable spitfire, he made everyone who came to see him feel laughter, love and joy. He was brave and kind with a smile that shined through his eyes, even in the sunset of his days.
His spirit lives on in his beautiful wife Dianne, their two daughters Karina and Krista, their son-in law James, and their two grandchildren, Isabella and Cole.
He is forever free, forever adored, and will be forever missed.
There will be a Celebration of Life and Repast for Ken on Saturday, July 27th at the Farm. Please contact via email kennyscelebration@gmail.com for further details.
