Died:
Keith Allison Spicer – age 71, of Kentville, passed away peacefully, at home, on Saturday, October 31, 2020 after a courageous battle with cancer. Born in Wolfville, he was the son of the late Earle and Dorothy (Lane) Spicer. As a successful retail manager in the Annapolis Valley and HRM, Keith started his career at the old IGA in Windsor before moving over to manage front-end retail operations for several pharmacy chains. He enjoyed the last 19 years of his working life at Carl Trider’s Pharmasave in Windsor. Undaunted by marathon commutes to the stores under his oversight, Keith and Joan called Windsor, Lunenburg, Hantsport, and finally Kentville their home. A certifiable motorcycle and car enthusiast, Keith owned all sizes and makes of motorcycles (including now-classic Velocettes) and it was always a lottery as to what type of car he was driving at any given time. He adored Corvettes, and even ownership of a pristine BMW Z4 didn’t quench his desire for one of those classic American sports cars. He loved driving and motorcycling and would head out with Joan on day trips on two or four wheels just because the road beckoned. And make no mistake - if there was a plate of decent fish and chips somewhere along the journey that was the icing on the cake. He was predeceased by his parents Earle and Dorothy Spicer and brother-in-law Maynard (Jake) Crowell. A private funeral service will be held in the White Family Funeral Home, Kentville. Burial will take place in the Elm Grove Cemetery, Steam Mill following the service.Family/Spouse: Living. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
