NANAIMO, BC–At Sutton, we take great pride in recognizing the meaningful contributions our agents make beyond the world of real estate. Today, we’re thrilled to celebrate Nanaimo-based agent Ken and his wife and business partner, Laura Welte, who have been honoured with the Priory of Canada of The Most Venerable Order of the Hospital of St. John of Jerusalem—a prestigious national award.
This recognition highlights Ken and Laura’s outstanding dedication and volunteer service to their local St. John Ambulance brigade over the past year. The Priory Vote of Thanks is a rare honour, reserved for individuals who have demonstrated extraordinary support to the Order of St. John in Canada, either on a special occasion or through sustained efforts over time.
In addition to running a thriving real estate business, Ken and Laura have committed countless hours to supporting health and safety initiatives in their community. Their efforts have helped strengthen vital first aid and wellness programs, ensuring these essential services remain accessible to those who need them most.
“Real estate has been an incredibly fulfilling career for us, but our time volunteering with St. John Ambulance has added another layer of purpose to our lives,” shared Ken. “It’s an honour to receive this award, and we’re grateful to be part of an organization that gives so much back to the community.”
Their dedication truly reflects the spirit of service that Sutton strives to uphold. Congratulations to Ken and Laura for this well-deserved recognition—you continue to inspire us all.
