Passing of a good friend
« on: May 01, 2024, 10:50:51 AM »
Sad to report the passing of a good friend and colleague, Ken Peters.  Ken was well known throughout the Fraser River watershed in his capacity as a Stock Assessment technician with DFO and in the Chilliwack area as a keen angler and hunter.  I was best man at his wedding and we spent many days working and fishing together. His infectious enthusiasm and laugh will be missed.

Bobbers down Ken!

Very sorry to hear that Dave as I've known Ken for a very many years. Have lots of great memories fishing with him, especially on the Vedder, Fraser and upper Pitt. Am going to miss him and all of his jokes and humor. RIP

So true.  You'd have a hard time finding anyone with anything negative to say about Ken Peters

Dave, I am very sorry to hear of your close friend's passing.
As we get older, more and more of them go.
My condolences to you and may Ken rest in peace.
