Obituary of Kevin Neil Currie

 Kevin Neil Currie

(January 2, 1952 - January 9, 2024)

My journey with pancreatic cancer has now come to an end. I fought hard to extend my time on earth, knowing from the onset that there was no cure. In the end cancer would end my life. Dr. Sawyer told me he couldn’t promise that everyday would be rainbows and unicorns. He was right some days were diamonds, some days were stones.

I am survived by my loving wife Donna of 49 years; three beautiful daughters, Kimberly Currie, Kelly (Philip) Paul and Christine Currie (Cody Williams); two grandsons, Ethan and Nolan Paul; Darryl (Gail) Currie; numerous family members and friends.

I was predeceased by my sister Debbie, brother-in-law Jim and their sons Danny and Blair Veillette; grandson baby Logan Paul; brother Brian; parents Gordon and Beryl; in-laws Roy and Kathleen Phillips; numerous aunts and uncles and family members.

For their compassion and caring I would like to sincerely thank the following people: Dr. Michael Sawyer (CCI), Jessica Kansik RD (CCI), Nicole McKell NP, Erin Suyker, my cancer care team at the Camrose Community Cancer Centre and my home care team. I love you all.

Kevin passed away peacefully at home surrounded by family at the age of 72 years.

A Funeral Service  was held at 11:00 a.m., Monday, January 15, 2024 from the Burgar Memorial Chapel, 4817 - 51 Avenue Camrose officiated by Rev Brian Hunter. 

If family and friends so desire, memorial contributions in Kevin's memory may be made to Cross Cancer Institute,  Camrose Community Cancer Centre, or to St Mary's Hospital.
