Remembering a life gone too soon. Family and friends are gathering to honor FWC Officer Julian Keen who was killed while off duty in LaBelle a few weeks ago.

We’ve all had the privilege to learn about Keen over the past few weeks and one of those things is just how many lives he touched.

At a service for him Monday, hundreds to thousands of people showed up. Of course, not everyone there knew him personally, but everyone we met had. They all used the same word to describe him.

“Love. There was nothing else that he saw.”

“He understood that, the meaning of love.”

“He didn’t see anything else but wonderful people in this life. He just wanted everyone to get along and love each other.”

“Always smiling, always positive and giving happiness and love wherever he went.”

Saturday’s funeral service is an opportunity to show that love right back to Keen.

There will be a private viewing for the family followed by a service open to the public beginning promptly at 11 a.m. at the Bethel Assembly of God in Immokalee.
