Kenyon had a love of life and everyone who met him felt his energy. He loved to joke around and his laughter filling the room. He had a kind word for everyone he met. His love of sports had his dad running from one field to another as he played everything he could from volleyball, basketball, football, rugby and Tae Kwon Do. His heart was full of love for animals especially his dog Xena who he adopted from the SPCA giving her a forever home.

Visitation will be held at the York Funeral Home, 302 Brookside Dr. Fredericton, NB on Thursday, April 4, 2019 from 2-4 and 6-8 pm. A memorial service will take place at the Serenity Free Will Baptist Church, 260 Serenity Lane, Fredericton, NB on Friday, April 5, 2019 at 11 am, with a reception to follow.

In lieu of flowers the family has asked that donations be made to the Oromocto SPCA to honour Kenyon’s love of animals and generous heart.
