Ken Hunt, more recently known as Sketch, 34, journalist, poet, musician, performer, pagan, anarchist, ESL tutor and native of Aberdeen, WA, died suddenly of injuries in Chicago on March 21, 2005.

A fierce anarchist pacifist and member of the Chicagoland Anarchist Network, Mad Tea Party, Queer & Trans Caucus, and Food Not Bombs, Sketch was also one of the main organizers of last year's anarchist feeder march which crashed pride and ended up clashing with the homophobes. Sketch's very last action in life was to attend a major antiwar rally with friends and comrades.

A celebration of Sketch's life will be held on April 3 at noon, and on April 2 in Aberdeen, and at various times in San Francisco, New York, and Austin. A second memorial and picnic in Chicago, April 9, 12-4p at Waldheim Cemetery, near the Haymarket Memorial in honor of Sketch's anarchist beliefs, 863 S. Des Plaines Ave, Forest Park, IL. Full story.
