Obituary of Kenneth "Red" Brundage

BRUNDAGE, Kenneth R. "Red":  Upper Tantallon, NS.  It is with deep regret that we announce the passing of Kenneth "Red" Brundage on February 25, 2014, in Upper Tantallon, NS, after a courageous battle with cancer.  Born in Springhill in 1934, he was the eldest son of the late Kenneth and Winnie Brundage.  He was a man of many talents, and was always willing to use them in helping a friend.  Happiest when busy, he enjoyed ATVing, camping in his trailer, showing his award-winning antique truck, and exploring the back roads of NS with Dorothy.  Having worked in a variety of jobs, which included mining, mechanics, and as a large equipment operator, he finished his working days in the trucking business.  Red leaves to mourn, his wife and soul mate, Dorothy (Kidston), his brothers, Charles (Wanda), Ernie, and Rod, and his sisters, Sharon, Elaine and Jackie.  The family wishes to thank Red’s friends and neighbours for their unending support at this sad time.  Special thanks to the VON and Palliative Care, together with Charles and Wanda and Judy and Graham Brundage, who made it possible for Ken to spend his last days at home.               Cremation has taken place under the care of JA Walker Funeral Home (2005) Ltd., 149 Herring Cove Road, Halifax, NS (477.5601), where the funeral service will be held in the chapel on Saturday, March 1, 2014 at 2PM, with Rev. Gordon Relf as officiating clergy.  A reception will follow the service.  Interment will take place in Emmanuel Church Cemetery Columbarium, Sussex St., Spryfield.  Family flowers only, in lieu, donations in memory of Ken may be made to Emmanuel Church Cemetery Fund, c/o Mrs. C. Backman, 149 Glenwood Dr., Head of St. Margaret’s Bay, NS B3Z 2E7.  Words of comfort may be sent to the family by visiting www.walkerfh.com
