December 27, 1945 – April 12, 2014
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Kenneth Martin Angeli. Born December 27, 1945, in Humboldt, Saskatchewan,he is predeceased by his father Joseph, mother Agnes and sister Brenda. He will be greatly missed by his wife Teckla of 48 years, his children Jackie (Mark) Gutknecht, Rick (Shari) Angeli, Kim (Chris) Burnham, Scott Angeli and his grandchildren Megan, Kyle, Amy, Courtney, Ashley, Cole, Makalya, and Dylan. He is survived by his brothers and sisters Sylvia, Marion, Larry and Karen.
When Ken moved to Kamloops, one of his first jobs was driving for Trimac which eventually led to his own trucking business as an owner operator. KAT Trucking was operational from 1976 to 2007 which was then purchased by Trimac…talk about a full circle. His passion for trucking was his biggest challenge and his greatest reward which he lived and breathed.
Ken’s greatest loves in life was his family, his snowbird months, golfing, and motorized vehicles; the faster the better and there wasn’t a vehicle he didn’t own and then sell.
Please join Ken’s family and friends in a celebration of life to be held at the Coast Canadian Hotel, 1250 Rogers Way, East Entrance, on Thursday, April 17, 2014, at 2 to 5 pm.
Thank you to the outstanding care and love by the Marjorie Willoughby Snowden Hospice during Ken`s last days. In lieu of flowers, please consider donations to the Hospice.

We loved having Ken and Teckla as neighbors over the years in the desert. Ken loved people and parties. I can still see his smiling face, and he beamed with happiness. It will not be the same without him, but we have great memories.
So sorry to hear the news, Tekla! We missed the celebration but feel certain Ken would understand that we are still in snowbird land.
I will miss the competitions with he and Dennis. All my memories of Ken are good! RIP
