Family, friends and colleagues of a Colorado musician who was killed in a crash are remembering him as a devoted family man, a talented and passionate musician and someone who exuded joy, positivity and love.
Kresten Wolff Thomsen was killed in a crash on Monday in Arvada when another driver crashed his truck into Wolff Thomsen’s car and then another vehicle. His family was in the car with him.
“He exudes joy and a love of life and an appreciation of everything that he’s doing,” Tim Carlin, principal of Peak Expeditionary School said.
It’s a joy that Wolff Thomsen shared every time he picked up an instrument.
“He becomes a friend right away. He’s just somebody that connects with people instantly,” Carlin said. “It became an every other week or so tradition and he got to know everybody here so well.”
Be it the steps of his children’s school at Peak Expeditionary or as a talented pianist for student classes at the Colorado Ballet.
