Westmount
It is with great sorrow that we, the loving family, announce the passing of Kevin Augustus Walker of Westmount on Monday, July 4, 2022, at home in Westmount.
Born on June 28, 1947, in Sydney, Kevin was the son of the late Augustus ‘Gussie’ and Marjorie (Auld) Walker of Sydney.
Kevin was employed at the Nova Scotia Liquor Commission, Sydney River for many years before his retirement. Kevin will be remembered as a real jokester in his younger years. He played many pranks on his co-workers and friends.
Kevin is survived by his loving wife, Cathy (MacCuish) Walker; daughter, Chantelle Walker, Calgary, AB; sisters, Sharon (Murray) Adams and Carol (Ed) Penney. He will be fondly remembered by his nieces, nephews and friends.
Special thanks to the VON, Palliative Care Team and Homecare who all made Kevin’s journey to the end peaceful and showed such care, not only to Kevin, but also to Cathy and family.
Visitation for the late Kevin Walker will be held at the Pier Community Funeral Home, Whitney Pier, 1092 Victoria Rd. (entrance on Church Street) on Friday, July 8, 2022, from 5-8 p.m. A celebration of Kevin’s life will be held in the funeral home in the All Faith Chapel on Saturday, July 9, 2022, at 11 a.m. with Rev. Sheldon Chant officiating. Private family interment will take place Forest Haven Memorial Gardens, Sydney.

Sending our sincere condolences to Kevin’s sisters Carol & Sharon and his loving wife Cathy & daughter Chantelle. Growing up in the same neighbourhood as Kevin has happy memories for the Warren children – George, Vivian & Jayne Catherine. Carol was my friend. I fondly remember the Walker family and remember Kevin as a happy little boy. Although saddened to read of his passing I was pleased to read he fell in love, married had a lovely daughter and wonderful life to celebrate. My brother George, sister Vivian and I celebrate Kevin’s wonderful life.
Hugs to the whole family, Jayne Warren-Clayton
I was shocked and saddened to hear of Kevin’s passing and send my condolences to his family. Kevin and I were good friends when we were young and foolish and we had a lot of fun together but I moved to Alberta and made a new life for myself. Kevin was a very nice person and I should have made more of an effort to stay in touch. I have a picture of us and friends from 1966 and could email it to anyone who wants to see it.
