And I remember shaking his hand and saying good luck, and all the right things. … He was a quieter sort of guy that just did well with the people around him.” Willis added that “[he was] a smiling, happy, go-lucky guy. A lucky guy, a great young guy with a future, genuinely excited about his opportunity in Yellowknife and what he would learn and see from that experience. “We’re all very upset here and very sad. … Our thoughts and prayers are definitely going to his family and his friends.”
