“Kenny was one of a kind, carefree, happy, always there when needed, would do anything to help you out. To those that knew him, he would be considered a golden guy,” the obituary said.
Over the weekend Police laid a second-degree murder charge against Terry Richard Johnson in relation to Kenny’s death.

Before police arrived, the truck had fled the scene. The victim was later named Kenneth Savory a 44-year-old man from Lunenburg was pronounced deceased at the scene.
Johnson appeared in Bridgewater Provincial Court this morning where his lawyer Alexander Pink requested a stay of proceedings until Wednesday so he has a chance to speak with the Crown prosecuter Bryson McDonald.
The judge agreed, though Johnson will remain in custody until his next hearing and potentially throughout his entire court proceeding.
