April 5, 1966 – October 31, 2024
It is with broken hearts we announce the passing of Brian Larry Kinzie, age 58, on October 31, 2024 surrounded by his loving family, after an extremely short but courageous battle with cancer.
Brian leaves behind the love of his life, Sheila; his beautiful daughters Meagan Herring (Jon), Jillian Jolkowski (Tyler) and Jamie; and his treasured grandsons, Maddox, Mason, Logan and Hayden. Also mourning his loss are his cherished parents, Larry and Carol Kinzie and his siblings, Brad (Anne) and Brenda Feeney (Greg). Brian touched the lives of many hearts and will be deeply missed by his large extended family, including in-laws, nieces, nephews, friends and co-workers.
Brian's career in the pipe and precast industry spanned over 38 years creating many meaningful relationships with colleagues and contractors, all of which he deeply valued. He was greatly respected in his profession and will be missed tremendously.
Brian loved to travel, hunt and fish - however his favourite times were enjoyed with his family, which meant the world to him. A typical long weekend would find him "putzing around" his property or hanging by the bonfire dancing with his buddy Tyler.
We would like to extend a huge thank you to our family physician, Dr. Shvan Korsheed, for his dedication, compassion and support shown throughout Brian's battle.
At Brian's request, a private family service has taken place and we invite all to attend a celebration of Brian's life to share your fondest memories to be held on November 17, 2024 at Whistle Bear Golf Club, 1316 Dickie Settlement Road, Cambridge, Ontario from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm.
In lieu of flowers, our family requests that you kindly consider making a donation in Brian's name to Innisfree Hospice.
Arrangements entrusted to Barthel Funeral Home
