It is with much sadness we announce the passing of our dear Kent. Kent leaves behind his wife Linda, children Michael (Chelsee), Marie, Matthew (Lisa), Mark, his 10 beloved grandchildren and brothers Jim (Sammi), Barry (Paris) and Niven (Caroline). Kent was born in New Westminster, BC, then moved to Port Alberni as a youngster and in 1973, he followed his parents to Victoria where he met his wife Linda in 1978 and married soon after in 1979. They started their family which began a brilliant adventure full of camping, road trips and family excursions which spanned from Vancouver Island, across B.C and throughout Alberta. Kent developed a love for cars and trucks at an early age and held on to that love through to his retirement years. Kent followed the family passion for municipal recreation and joined Saanich Parks and Recreation in 1977. He spent the next 35 years at Cedar Hill Recreation Centre where he was responsible for the facility maintenance. He developed a reputation around Saanich for having the cleanest and best maintained facility. He was a fixture at the facility and could be found there day and night keeping an eye to ensure things were just right. Kent loved his family. His four children and ten grandchildren kept a constant smile on his face. The annual summer vacation in Osoyoos was the highlight of the year for the whole family. Kent had a love for people in general and developed many friendships during his life. You could always find Kent at a “Tim’s”chatting it up with old and new friends. We will all miss Kent and feel much gratitude that his recent battle with ALS did not dampen his zest for life. The family would like to extend their sincere thanks to all the staff at the Cridge for the care and love they gave Kent during his time there. We would also like to thank the staff at VGH ICU ward for their care of Kent and support to family in Kent’s final days. Donations in Kent’s honour may be made to the ALS Society of B.C.- Victoria Branch.
A Service will be held for Kent at Hope Evangelical Church, 1924 Carrick St., Victoria, BC on Sunday, April 23, 2023 at 3:00pm. Reception to follow. Condolences may be offered to the family below.
