On August 4th we lost an amazing man. A celebration of life will be held to honour him on September 21st in the Squamish downtown Pavilion Park. Please join us in an evening of sharing and celebrating all the joy that Ken brought into our world. Event details to be updated.

Ken was a beautiful human. He lived life to the fullest. He figured out that delicate balance that most of us strive to practice. He chased his dreams in the mountains. He knew how to relax in his down time. If something sparked his interest he was excellent at taking it upon himself to learn all about it. He was a valued friend to many. His enthusiasm was contagious, and his company was so easy and natural to keep. He called Squamish home for nearly a decade, during which time he engaged and impacted our community enormously.
We are asking for support to help host this community gathering and celebration. We are asking for support to help sustain Ken’s home – his boat the Dawn Star. We would like to keep it moored in Squamish as a home that his partner can hold onto during this time of deep loss. If you are able to contribute it will be greatly appreciated.
We are requesting photo submissions of any captured moments that you treasure and we can include in a slideshow. Photos can be emailed to thomasburden@gmail.com. If you would like to share a story, a fond memory, a song, a poem etc please let us know and we will create space for it.
