Kevin was an electrician by trade and past member of IBEW Local 1852. Kevin also held various jobs throughout his life.
Kevin had a great sense of humour, a larger then life personality and was a true gentleman. He would talk to everyone and would lend a hand to anyone in need. Most times you’d find Kevin working around the yard and in his beloved garage which was a conversation piece all in itself. When you’d see Kevin, you’d see Char, their bond was inseparable.
When Kevin met Char the love of his life he included her into the drag racing community. Together they travelled the Maritimes racing for many years. They not only enjoyed racing but also enjoyed spectating the events. Kevin and Char enjoyed the conversations with fellow racers.
Kevin was an extremely dedicated New York Yankees, Oakland Raiders and Toronto Maple Leafs fan. He was fortunate enough to see his teams play in their home towns..
Kevin will be sadly missed. He is survived by his loving wife and best friend of 31 years Charlene (Walton) MacLeod. His mother and father in-law Doreen and William Walton, sister-in-law Danielle (Byron) Miller and their children Chelsea (Travis), Kirk, Mitchell, Madison (Kyle), Parker and Riviera.
Kevin is also survived by his “ Little Ladies” great nieces Emersyn Rose and Rylee Ann Kirk. Kevin had many friends and close friends, too many to mention. He also survived by cousins.
