Kendall Reid Stacey

Kendall Reid Stacey, 26 years old, of San Francisco, California, died suddenly of natural causes on June 28, 2016 at his home. Kendall was born September 19, 1989 in Berkeley, California, son of John M. Stacey, Jr. and his former wife, Deborah K. Stacey. Kendall touched the lives of so many in his native state of California, his partially adopted state of Virginia where he frequently visited his father, and Boston while attending college.

Kendall enjoyed the beach, skiing, lacrosse, animals, and being surrounded by family and friends. Always curious and learning, he was a graduate of The Nueva School, Menlo-Atherton High School and Boston University. Kendall lit up any room he entered and brought happiness, laughter and compassion to the many people he touched during his short life.

In addition to his parents, Kendall is survived by his brother, John M. Stacey III, of Palo Alto; his aunt and uncle, Pam and Dick Gibson of Charlottesville and their children and Kendall's cousins, Scott Gibson of Atlanta, Trevor Gibson of Charlottesville and Brooke Murdock of Richmond; his aunt and uncle, Georgetta and Rick Kuhman of Columbus, Ohio and his cousins, Missy Smith and Sarah Kinsey; his aunt and uncle, Joanne and Jeff Kuhman of Tecumseh, Michigan and his cousins, Heidi Gergely, Jon Kuhman and Ali Dacy.

An East Coast celebration of Kendall's life is planned for family and friends on Friday July 8th, 2016 at 1 p.m. at Westminster Presbyterian Church, Charlottesville, Virginia, and a reception will follow in the Fellowship Hall. A private interment will be held at Monticello Memorial Gardens, Charlottesville, Virginia, where his paternal grandparents, John M. and Charlotte S. Stacey are buried. A West Coast celebration of Kendall's life will be held at a later date.
