Title: The Passing of my friend "KENEFICK"
Post by: sealdaddy on January 27, 2018, 09:39:45 AM

His name was Ken Breeden and he lived in an area northeast of Houston, TX known locally as Kenefick.
He was a kind generous man and friend.  I will miss him.

I saw him last June to give him some material before flying up to Canada.  He looked a little tired but not overly so.
Then 2 months later, his area was hit with 40 inches of rain from hurricane Harvey.
I have no idea if there was a connection, but 2 months later he died.

When he didn't reply to my email on how he and his wife after the storm caused me to do an internet search.
Sadly...I found this.

Here is a very bad picture of him.  It looks like he had fallen, possibly, and hit his head.

Indeed, friend...us included.
I have a young boy here who is fired up about the beauty of the earth's treasures.
I think I will foster his interest, as you have mine over the past few years, my friend

Sending smoke his way. We're all getting old... I seem to be aging 3 years every year anymore.
