ALAN KAY

With heavy hearts, we announce that Alan unexpectedly passed away on July 12th, 2024 at the age of 40 years.

He is survived by his daughter Emily; his mother Corinna (Matt); siblings, Justen (Erika), Amanda (Chris), Steven, Jessica, and Eric; his nephews Jaxton, Brayden, and Asher; his nieces, Emma, Anastasia, Kaylee, Madison, and Scarlett; his best friend Tyler; many aunts, uncles, cousins, friends, as well as his special companion Gus Gus the cat.

Alan was predeceased by his father Alan William Kay in 2015. 

Ever since Alan was a little boy, he had a curious mind. Often we would find his toys taken apart because he wanted to see how they worked. He was a very active, outgoing and affectionate child.

Through his teen years and adulthood, Alan enjoyed singing and playing his guitar, writing lyrics, dirt biking, quadding, boxing and skateboarding. He was the true definition of a free spirit. He lived his life his way and on his own terms. He was kind, very generous and would give you the shirt off his back. He was always willing to lend a helping hand to anyone who needed it. His heart was pure gold. Alan’s humour was one of a kind, and the laughter he brought to our lives will be sorely missed. When he walked into a room, people were drawn to him and his gentle way. His smile was infectious. Quite simply, to know Alan was to love him.

“To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die.”

A celebration of his life will be held at 2:00 p.m. Friday, July 26, 2024 at 603 Wellington Crescent at Academy Road (Unitarian Church).

Alan’s family kindly requests that all of his friends and relatives take a few minutes to honour his memory by sharing photos, memories, and stories, using the comment section on this page.
