ROBINSON, John Kent

Age 77 of East Lahave. On September 16, 2021 we had a sad and fond farewell with dear Kent/sir Kently/our Keenie. Born on July 16, 1944, to wonderful parents Thelma (Hunter) Robinson and John F. Robinson, he was also big brother to his sisters, Linda (Brian Walsh), Nancy (Garnet Macdonald), Jacquelin (Davis) and Marcia (Robinson). He deeply loved, sang to, teased, entertained, encouraged, bragged about, and created nicknames for his children, Kari, Jay, Lara and Tania; and his grandchildren, Andreas, Grace, Rowan, Evan, Seamus, Kate and Claire. With his wife Sue (Shaw), he shared 50 years of adventures, quests, and a deep, loving commitment and companionship - what an indomitable partnership! The family sends heartfelt thanks to all the members of our South Shore Community Care, especially the Palliative Care team, and the local VON, who helped us with such efficiency and sweet compassion during these final months. Funeral arrangements entrusted to Dana L. Sweeny Funeral Home, 11213 Hwy. 3, Lunenburg. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Kent’s granddaughter’s Charity Association Got Your Back, (gotyourback902@gmail.com), or a charity of your choice. A joyous and fitting celebration of life will be held sometime in the near future, as we navigate COVID protocols together. www.sweenyfuneralhome.ca
