- Obituary:
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Kevin R. Broad on January 18, 2024. Kevin was born April 26, 1938 in Holmesville to the late Leigh and Bernice (DeMerchant) Broad. He was predeceased by his brothers Oral and Keith Broad; sister Verdaline Ruff; brother-in-law Carl Ruff; and son-in-law Scot Birnie.
Kevin is survived by his beloved wife of 63 years, Delores (Watson). He was a loving father to his daughters Karen Birnie and Karla Deweyert (Ted); dearly loved by his grandchildren John, David, Claire and Anne (Ryan); and lovingly remembered by several nieces, nephews and extended
family.
Kevin made a career in the lumber industry when he married and moved to Juniper in 1960. His near 40 years of service garnered him respect as a manager, always leading by example. He enjoyed time spent in nature in every season. Fly fishing, hunting, snowshoeing, canoeing, camping, and backpacking were among his favorite pastimes. He especially enjoyed tailgate picnics with his girls. Kevin cherished close friendships, of which he had many. His quiet reflective manner and warm smile were a source of comfort and strength to his family. He will be missed by all of those who were fortunate enough to be in his life.
Visitation will be held at L.R. Giberson Funeral Directors on Sunday, January 21, 2024 from 1:00-3:00pm. A funeral service will follow at 3:00pm in the L.R. Giberson Chapel. Rev. Susan Estabrooks will officiate. For those who wish, donations can be made to Miramichi Headwaters Salmon Federation (Juniper Station).
