Obituary of Kathleen Lydia Harmon
In the middle of her afternoon nap, Kay left 101 years behind her and went to join Ken (2006). Loving mother to Richard (the late Judy) and Dorothy (Donald) Brown. Grandmother to Christine (2008)(Steven), Scot (Luci), Meredith (Mark), Sarah (Christian) and Zachary. Great-Grandmother to Benjamin (2001), Nathan, James, Jalyn, Connor, Eliza, Cecelia, Audrey, Bud, Caitlyn, and Locklynn. Devoted Aunt to Lois (the late Peter), Kenneth and Ann.
Born in Thunder Bay, Kay, Ken and their family lived throughout Ontario, settling in Burlington in 1957. Kay was one of the first volunteers at Joseph Brant Hospital. She also was President of the Altar Guild at St. Luke’s Anglican Church as well as a longtime member of the ACW.
After Ken retired, they travelled frequently to South Carolina as well as visiting family in Nevada, England, Portugal, and Western Canada.
Twelve years ago, Kay relocated to the Niagara Region to be near family, and was one of the first residents at Seasons Retirement Residence in Welland.
Kay’s family thanks the staff at Seasons for their loving, compassionate care, and particularly to Shari from Sandra’s Home Health Care—who came into her life at the exact right moment.
In keeping with Kay’s wishes, cremation has taken place. A Celebration of Life will be held on Wednesday, April 27th, 2022 at 2pm at The Church of the Transfiguration, 320 Glenridge Ave.
St. Catharines. Masks required. In lieu of flowers, donations to Kay’s favourite charity, Primate’s World Relief Development Fund would be appreciated.
