KENNEDY, HARRY EDWARD
We are grief stricken at the loss of our dear Harry. After a long and arduous battle with cancer Harry passed away June 22, 2016 at his beautiful home on Lake Joseph, in Muskoka with his adoring wife Darlene by his side.
Born in Camrose, Alberta, Harry was the middle sibling between two sets of twins. Predeceased by his father Alfred, mother Marjory, sister Dorothy and wife Evelyn. Survived by brothers John (Candice) and David Kennedy and sister Jean Slemko (Clifford), son Jason, daughter Lee Cassie (Travis) and grandchildren Logan, Carter, Jack, Kate, Cooper and wife Darlene
Harry graduated with a bachelor of Commerce from the University of Alberta where he went on to have a distinguished career with Xerox in Edmonton. Harry was a rising star becoming Edmonton's branch manager before moving to Toronto to become Vice President of Sales. Harry's entrepreneurial spirit next lead him to McDonald's and the purchase of his first restaurant in Leamington, Ontario. Always seeking opportunity Harry moved to Fredericton growing his McDonald's market there to 8 stores before selling 23 years later. Harry's retirement years were filled with travel, golf and enjoying good friends. Not a fan of cold weather, he and Darlene would leave their Muskoka home for winter months at his residence in Florida. Golf was on the calendar most days believing always his next and 11th ace could happen in his next round of golf. Harry's years of playing and love for the game were evident should you engage in discussion or ask for information. He would also be happy anytime to oblige anyone, in a rules discussion.
It is said if you take the number of friends you make throughout your life and multiply by 100 it will approximate the number of people you have inspired. Harry was indeed an inspiration.
