Luke MacKelvie's family describes the 25-year-old victim of Friday's Kananaskis plane crash as a selfless lover of the outdoors and a passionate Christian.
MacKelvie and five of his lifelong friends were killed on July 28 when their aircraft went down in the Rockies.
His family, which spoke exclusively to CTV News on Thursday, says the Calgarian was excited to marry his fiancée, Kim.
The youth pastor was devoted to his religion and to his family, they say.
He was also an outdoor enthusiast who enjoyed fishing, hunting and hiking.
"Where there was a need, that's where he was," MacKelvie's father said.
"Lives were changed because of him."
