KEVIN GALBRAITH Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Oct. 23, 2017.

GALBRAITH, KEVIN MICHAEL April 20, 1964 – October 19, 2017 It is with the deepest sorrow and broken hearts that we announce the passing of our dearest Kevin Galbraith on Thursday, October 19, 2017. Kevin was the beloved father of Kali Elizabeth Galbraith and she was his sun and his moon and his stars. Kevin will be forever missed by his wife, Karen; and his devoted sister, Tracey Kachmar, and her husband Mike. His mother, Joan, who was the first love of his life, passed away in 2004; he is survived by his father, Morris Galbraith. Kevin loved his family beyond measure and he will always be missed by; his nieces and nephews, Haley and Tyler Kachmar, Lindsay Perrin (Bart), Britney Jones (Devin), and Jaime Radtke (Eric); his sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Brenda and Dave Field; and his father-in-law and golfing buddy, Stan Field. And let's not forget Winnie: she was his "other" Darling Girl, and they will swim the waters of life together forever in our memories. If you were Kevin's friend, you need worry about nothing. He was there for you and your family and his generosity of spirit and kindness is his legacy to us all. Kevin lived a big life, full of laughter, full of music and full of love. Our tears and our sorrow may never end but his love for us and his joie de vivre will be with us always. We will welcome our family and friends to celebrate our love for Kevin at St. George's Golf Club, 1668 Islington Avenue, Etobicoke, on Saturday, October 28, 2017 from 1:30 - 3:30 p.m. Tributes will begin at 2:00 p.m. If you wish, please make a donation to the charity of your choice. This big, handsome, kind and generous man would be honoured. Online condolences may be made through www.turnerporter.ca

I had the dinstinct pleasure of knowing Kevin when I moved near his home in Etobicoke and attended the same high school, Martin Grove Collegiate. Kevin welcomed me into his world and group of friends which made a lasting impact on me during our formative adolescence. I knew Kevin only a few short years (grade 9-10) but will always remember him as being full of lafter and good natured will. What a shock to have learned of his passing. My deepest and sincere sympathy to his family and loved ones. Peace.

So sad to hear of Kevin's passing. He was a great friend to me in the 80's when we attended Trebas together. Thanks for letting me be "one of the guys" when I was in a classroom of mostly guys! Thanks for teaching this small town girl how to navigate downtown Toronto. Cheers to eating pizza with a knife and fork, throwing beer bottles onto Maple Leaf Gardens roof, dancing like "Snoopy" to piano music from the "Peanuts", rolling up my cords in the studio when I made a mess of them, pork chops on the BBQ on Cotman, easy over eggs without flipping them, your Mom's white Hyundai Pony and cheers mostly for being you! Rest easy my friend.

May God comfort your family at this difficult time.

Our deepest sympathies to Kevin's family and loved ones. It's been a shock to hear of his sudden passing and words can't begin to describe what a wonderful guy Kevin was to all who knew him.

I'll always have fond memories of our summers at Birch Point Lodge and our endless hours snorkeling along the sand bar.

His good spirit will live in all of us as we traverse our paths in life.

With love, Jim and my family and my mother Dorrit.

What a shock! I remember spending time with Kevin in the bleachers of the Olympium pool watching Kali diving. He was a kind and devoted father to her. While walking in the neighbourhood, he always had time to talk and share stories. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Karen and Kali at this time.

Julia and I and family were shocked to hear of Kevin's sudden passing. Kevin, Karen and Kali have been like family to Sue and ourselves at Haliburton Lake. He will be sadly missed.

Our thoughts and hearts are with you all. Kevin was a joyful person, adored husband and father and was a dear friend to many, especially for Susan, Greg and Alexandra. We are deeply saddened.
