Port Hawkesbury
It is with broken hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved son, grandson, brother and uncle, Jason Keough, aged 46, suddenly, of natural causes on Thursday, May 14, 2020 at his residence in Port Hawkesbury.
Born on February 27, 1974 in Sydney, Jason spent his childhood in Whitney Pier and his summers at Pipers Cove with his large extended Keough family. As a teenager, Jason moved with his family to the Annapolis Valley where he completed high school at Bridgetown Regional Community School.
Jason was a proud supporter of the East Coast German Shepard Rescue Organization, where he fostered many dogs over the years. A particular favorite was Ranger whom he adopted and lovingly cared for the past eight years. He turned his love of animals into a career where he managed a pet store.
Jason is survived by his parents, Glenn and Susan (Penney) Keough of Sydney; sister, Tammy Grenier (Mike) of Athabasca, Alberta; maternal grandmother, Delores Penney of Sydney; as well as many uncles, aunts and cousins. He is also survived by his special niece, Amelia and nephew, Ben of Athabasca, Alberta.
Jason was predeceased by his maternal grandfather, James Penney; uncle, Gary Penney and his paternal grandparents, Andrew and Evelyn Keough.
Jason was well known for helping those in need even to his own detriment. He has a few special friends, Ryan, Mitchel and Naomi that will be remembered for being there for him as well. Jason will be remembered for being a very giving person and will be sorely missed by those he cared for.
Cremation has taken place and a service will be held at Pier Community Funeral Home when permitted.
Donations in memory of Jason can be made to any animal organization of your choice.
Funeral arrangements are entrusted to the care and direction of Pier Community Funeral Home.
2020
Nos plus sincères sympathies à la famille et aux amis de KEOUGH Jason Andrew James 2020..
