William KennedyIt is with broken hearts that we announce the passing of William Philip Kennedy on February 17, 2017. He leaves four children; Greg and Nancy Kennedy, Trish and Dale Tallon (Kelsey (Kyle) Mitchell), Kathy and Dan Mathieson (Parker, Logan, Haley) and Maureen and Brian Howell (Bryn, Laine). He was predeceased by his wife Mary in 2009. Dad was born on June 18, 1922 in Antler, Saskatchewan. He was one of five children. At the young age of 18, Dad was enlisted in the Canadian Navy. He served his country for 4 and a half years. He was a proud Canadian and made it known to all. Dad was also an adventurous man. He took his wife and young family to California in 1955, where they spent 11 years. He returned to Canada in 1966 and resided in Regina where he and mom raised our family. Dad was a dedicated husband and father, but his true love was spending time with his grandchildren. He was proud of their many accomplishments and took great delight in telling others about each of them. Dad spent the past 3 and a half years at The Bentley, where he made many precious friends. The staff treated him royally. We thank Dr. Kazmi, Dr. Aslam and Dr. Abdulhadi for his constant care. Our family would also like to thank the General Cardiac Surveillance Unit for the love, care and compassion shown to Dad. We loved our father dearly! There will be no funeral at dad's request.
