Kevin James Maloney

Maloney, Kevin James – Age 70, passed away on October 20, 2024 in Musquodoboit Valley Home for Special Care (Braeside) in Middle Musquodoboit.

Born in Gander, Newfoundland, he was a son of William “Bill” and the late Christina (Quinlan) Maloney.

Kevin will be lovingly remembered by his wife, Claire, Lantz; daughters, Robyn and Heather (Miguel), both of Grande Prairie, AB; granddaughter, Addison, who affectionally knew him as Grampy with Charlie; grandson, Jake, who loved his laugh and called him Poppy; siblings, Carmel (Greg), Olds, AB; Linda (Aidan), Gander, NL; Marilyn (Janine), Calgary, AB; Christopher (Maureen), Airdrie AB; Pegge (Kevin), Lantz; Betty, Elmsdale; and numerous nieces and nephews, who fondly knew him as Funcle (fun uncle).

Kevin retired in 2009 after a long career in ground and cargo services at the Halifax Stanfield International Airport where he made numerous friends over the years. His laugh was infectious and he loved a good pun. He always enjoyed a friendly game of darts or a worthy opponent to play crib with.

Our sincerest gratitude to the staff at Braeside who gave Kevin a safe, happy and dignified home. He loved you all very much.

Cremation has taken place under the direction of Arimathea Funeral Cooperative, Upper Musquodoboit.
