Ken died today from complications of chronic granulomatous disease, a rare genetic immunodeficiency. He lived a full life, with personal and professional success that exceeded what was expected for someone with this illness.

His lungs declined such that he had not been able to leave the house since April. Twitter allowed him to continue to interact with a community and have an audience for his wit, so thank you.

Not to mention, a river to his people.

I’m not a restaurant owner but I know many friends that are. January is a brutal month - then you throw in a tough economy and a Weekend State of an emergency. Talk about a cold front. So once we’re done “chilling out”, lets do our best to “get out & eat out” #getoutandeatout

Unfortunately, I continue to go downhill faster than the snowboarders on Holloway Street. Therefore, I have to suspend all visitation other than by immediate family.

If this snowstorm has you feeling cold this thread is sure to warm you up. Thanks to @CJPDoyle for getting the ball rolling and making it happen.
Something amazing just happened, and it didn’t make a single headline. It happened in a place you’ve probably never been, to a family you’ve never met And it's the best story you'll read. A Thread. (Hint: It involves sports, refugees, and what it means to be Canadian.)

Not having to worry about the storm, I was able to improvise a milkshake instead #hospitallife

I have an idea, don't laugh: Everyone poke a broom on the roof of your car if it's on the road. That way snowplow operators can see the cars. Homemade flag. K go. ❄️🚜 #nlwx #stormageddon2020 #cbcnl

I saw this picture on Facebook this AM. That’s my house (car buried). Some kind stranger dug my neighbours and me out overnight. We are so appreciative! He is our storm hero! #nlwx #nlblizzard2020 #snowmaggedon2020 #hero

WaterWest steak, Chinched pickled beets and Almaviva. Wonderful storm meal! (I didn’t have the courage to BBQ though).

Since he was a storm, I suggest the #blizzardofcros
I really think we need to put our minds to it and come up with a name and hashtag for this storm. #nlwx May I suggest #alavonisgone or #towniewinterdrownie ?

I am glad! Thanks for the terrific visit. Enjoy the rest of your evening! – at St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador
I continue to be overwhelmed by the kindness and generosity of others. Thank you @PaulAntleNL for the lovely treat today. I'm still enjoying it now. Cheers!
