Born March 6, 1929, in Amirault’s Hill, he was a son of the late Albert and Agnes (Muise) Landry. Kinkie was a retired truck driver, having worked in that capacity for some time in Labrador. He also worked as an apple-picker in Maine in his younger years. After his retirement, he did a number of odd jobs for people. A community-minded individual, he helped with Le Festival d’la Barge and was a devoted and faithful member of Holy Family Church. He enjoyed traveling to Ste-Anne-de Beaupré and will be remembered by many for driving his bicycle well into his eighties. He is survived by his devoted caregiver and long-time friend, Judy (Bruce) Belliveau, along with Judy and Bruce’s daughter, Suzette (Norm) Belliveau-Legault; brothers, Arthur Landry, Villa St. Joseph-du-Lac, Dayton; Lionel Landry (friend Cheryl), Yarmouth and Fidelis Landry, Kentville; a sister, Celestine Landry, Saulnierville, and a niece, Cheryl, Yarmouth. Aside from his parents, he was predeceased by sisters, Rose-Aimée Landry and Bernadette Landry; brothers, Zacherie Landry and Léander Landry. Visitation will take place from 6-8 p.m. Sunday, with prayers at 7 p.m., at H.M. Huskilson’s Funeral Home, 29 Albert Street, Yarmouth. A funeral Mass will take place at 10:30 a.m., Monday, May 16 from Holy Family Catholic Church, Amirault’s Hill, Father Cyrille Assihou and Father Albéni d’Entremont officiating.
