It is with broken hearts that we announce the sudden passing of Kerrie Lynn (MacNeil) MacKenzie, age 45 of Middle River, on Monday, Sept. 22, 2014, as a result of a motor vehicle accident.
Born August 11, 1969, Kerrie was the daughter of Jimmy Hector and Gerry (MacDonald) MacNeil of Washabuck. She worked as a hair stylist at the Alderwood Rest Home in Baddeck for the past 26 years.
Along with her parents, Kerrie is survived by her loving husband, Sandy and three cherished children, Emma (Nolan) Fraser, Margaree; Carter and Kailyn, at home; granddaughter “Nanny’s little puddin” Paityn; sister, Juanita (Kevin) MacNeil; sister-in-law, Jean (Donnie) MacDougall; brothers-in-law, Carl (Julia), David (Annette); nephews, Curtis (Allison), David, Ryan, Miguel, Rowan, Joe, Ryan; nieces, Jenna, Quinn; great niece, Eilidh; great nephew, Finley and many special aunts, uncles, cousins and close friends.
Kerrie was predeceased by her father-in-law, Allister MacKenzie and two brothers, James and Sheldon, both in infancy.
Devoted wife, mother, daughter, sister, nanny and a true friend to so many, Kerrie will be greatly missed and lovingly remembered by all. Her smile could brighten any room. Kerrie’s greatest pleasure came from spending time with her family and friends, laughing and telling stories. She could often be found cheering on her children in rinks, soccer fields and basketball courts.
Arrangements are under the direction of T.W.Curry Parkview Chapel. Visitation will be held Friday, Sept. 26 from 2-9 p.m. in Farquharson Memorial Presbyterian Church, Middle River, where we will also hold a celebration of Kerrie’s life on Saturday, Sept. 27 at 2 pm.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Baddeck Academy Sports Council, P.O. Box 310, Baddeck, N.S., B0E 1B0.
