Douglas Kelly-Waterfield, 28, sits next to his little brother Skyler Kelly on a worn-out sofa, thumbing through photos of their father, Rod Kelly.
“Fifty-four years old and he’s already gone,” Kelly-Waterfield says. “We can’t call our dad anymore and see him. And we’ve got to live with that for the rest of our lives.”
Kelly-Waterfield’s dad, Rod Kelly, was a long-time resident of Cumberland, a small village nestled at the bottom of the mountains in the Comox Valley on Vancouver Island.
His kids say he was a logger, a mountain biker, and a dedicated father who liked to tell dirty jokes and play air
