My first encounter with Ken King was at the Shaw Charity Classic in 2013. He was there to play in the pro am event and when I introduced myself he thought I was his designated caddy until he spotted the cast on my left hand. He shook my hand and said he promised not to crush it like the other one and we had a good laugh.

I followed his group for a few holes and Ken turned out to be a pretty good golfer.







There was another time where I had sent him an email asking if I could have DVD copy of the playoff video that was made for the first round. I can't remember the year but he sent a reply asking for my mailing address so he could mail a copy to me.

A few years ago I spotted Ken and one of his boys in the High River Sobeys. It was thanksgiving and mother and myself were getting some whipping cream and a pumpkin pie for a social function we were attending. Without even realising what had happened Ken paid for our cream and pie and wished both my mother and myself a happy Thanksgiving.

One of the nicest people you could ever meet

RIP Ken!
