Lawrence Kickham Obituary
Lawrence was preceded in death by his parents, Lawrence and Virginia Kickham.
He is survived by his children: daughters Laura Robinson (Taylor) and Emily Fanning (Jonathan), and sons Patrick Kickham and Tim Kickham (Sinéad O'Brien). He was a proud grandfather to four grandchildren, Erin and Natalie Robinson, and Audrey and Catherine Fanning. He also leaves behind his sister, Nairn Kickham.
Lawrence was actively involved in the Delta Sailing Association and Boy Scout Troop 34, where he generously shared his time, cooking skills, and enthusiasm. He enjoyed trivia, duck hunting and was well known for his quick wit and love of pranks, always finding ways to make others laugh. His sense of humor, devotion to family, and steady presence will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
Services and inurnment will be held at Elmwood Cemetery at a later date.

Woody will be missed. He had a good nature about him and a great sense of humor. Sailing or working he always did his part to "get'er dun". Gonna miss his smile and quick wit. Peace on you and all your family Woody till we meet again.

Woody was a long and loyal member of Delta Sailing Association and was always willing to help when there was work or a regatta to run. He will be missed.
