Dwight “Groove” Alfred Kean
1946-2019
It is with a heavy heart that we announce of the passing of
Dwight “Groove” Alfred Kean on September 5, 2019 at
the Dr Everett Chalmers Hospital. Leaving to mourn are his
sisters Shirley Connolly and Elaine Woolridge (Art deceased), niece
Lorraine Woolridge (Tracey Bean), nephews Ed Woolridge (Donna) and
Glen Connolly; along with Betty Damery and many other friends and
family. Dwight was pre-deceased by parents Alfred &
Louise (Blackwood) Kean, stepmother Mary (Freake/Sparkes) Kean and
sister Millicent Taylor.
Dwight was very soft hearted with a kind and generous nature.
He was always wanting to help family, friends and even strangers, in
whatever way he could. He always spoke of his cat companions
like they were his children and they held a very special place in his
heart. Dwight spent 26 years of honourable service in the
Canadian Army including tours in Germany, Egypt and Cyprus.
He has left an indelible mark and will be missed by
many.
At Dwight’s request there will be no visitation.
All family and friends are invited to attend a Celebration of
Life/Tribute at The Royal Canadian Legion Branch #93, Restigouche Rd,
Oromocto, on September 14, 2019 at 3 pm, followed by a reception, and
sharing of stories. Dwight wanted us to laugh and tell
stories. Pictures can be sent to Betty
at bdamery51@gmail.com,
and please if you are unable to attend, send along stories, so that
you can be part of Dwight’s Celebration of
Life.
In lieu of flowers, donations to the Oromocto SPCA would be
appreciated.
