Darren Lee Pineo
1968-2019
Darren Lee Pineo – age 51, of Kentville, passed away on
Saturday, November 23, 2019 in the Valley Regional Hospital,
Kentville. It is with complete and utter sadness I say goodbye to my
best friend Darren, who was always my rock, heart and soul, and the
love of my life. Whenever I needed him, he dropped everything and came
to be with me. He has left me with three amazing children who are, in
so many ways, just like their father. He instilled in them lots of
knowledge and always had their backs 100%. He was ripped from us way
too young and we had so many plans. I will say he has introduced us,
especially my children, to an amazing support system in the people in
his life that he helped or taught something to. The support we have
received from everyone is amazing and the words about Darren have
really let us know how many lives he has touched over his 51 years. He
leaves this earth with a piece of my heart and my every lasting love
forever and always. They say this hole in my heart will mend in time
but I don’t know, it’s a huge hole that has left
me lost and broken. He did make sure we had lots of extended family as
well as the adopted ones that I know will be there for us for a very
long time. Words cannot express how much the support and love we have
been shown over the past few days has helped start the healing and
helps with the grief. Darren was a man with a plan and a plan and
another plan. He just could not keep up with them all. He was a true
friend who always helped someone out no matter what. Thank you all for
sharing in his life. As a young boy he loved to play hockey, he was a
goalie, into to dirt bikes and bicycling everywhere with his friend
Robert. He loved anything with wheels and a motor. Darren was a
daredevil from a young age and that never changed, «go
easy» wasn’t in his nature. Darren loved hunting
and fishing, his time at the race track with his boss, Fred, the
off-road community and all their events and trails, his new passion of
over-landing with Andy and the boys, his many, many hours with Zack
(whom the kids called his adopted son and their brother) and Roy (the
candy man) in the garage where they all loved tearing apart the
numerous vehicles and projects and making them something new and
better (overkill) until it broke and they had to do it again bigger
and better. Darren had so many more plans for the next Jeep project
which, with help from Alex, Ben, Rebecca and Zack, will be finished in
his memory and hopefully just how he would of wanted it done. We are
sure Darren is busy wherever he is now getting everyone in on his
plans there and making them just as overkill as always. Darren was the
beloved son of Louise (Best) Pineo, Kentville, and the late Wendell L.
Pineo. Darren is survived by his loving wife, and best friend, Carie
Lynne (Durno); devoted father to his children, Alex, Rebecca and
Benjamin; brother of Glen (Tanya); nephew, Brandon; niece, Sydney;
parents-in-law, Bruce and Lynda Durno, Cambridge; brother-in-law,
Scott (Colleen) Durno. Darren was predeceased by his father, Wendell
Lee Pineo in 2014, with Leukemia. Cremation has taken place and there
will be no visitation, by request. A celebration of Darren’s
life will be held at 11:00 a.m. Friday, November 29, 2019 in the White
Family Funeral Home, Kentville. We want to say thank you to all our
friends and family, all the first responders, doctors and nurses who
helped. We are so grateful to everyone. Words cannot express how we
feel for everything and everyone. Donations in memory may be made to
the Jacob Stern Memorial Toy Drive. Funeral arrangements have been
