Akeem Warren was in the Signal Corps as an ACISS. We were in the same regiment in Kingston, Ontario, the CFJSR regiment.
He was cheerful, loved to laugh, play pranks, encourage his colleagues and always had a positive attitude. Shortly after I left the CAF, he began to struggle with his demons.
Despite his mental health problems, he was always trying to cheer everyone up and make everyone happier. He was that kind of person. He was loved by everyone around him.
In the end, his demons took over and he lost his fight against them.
He’s gone too soon and will always be remembered.
