John James Kivell

Kivell, John 1939 - 2024

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of John Kivell on his 85th birthday August 5 after a short illness. A loving husband to Gail (predeceased) and loving father to Kelly and Keith. Fondly remembered by all of his friends on Eagle Lake and the Haliburton community, John was the Jack of all trades and master of many and would happily lend his expertise to all that needed it. "If John couldn't fix it no one could".

The family would like to express thanks to Peterborough, Oshawa, and Haliburton Hospitals for the loving care he received. 

Celebration of Life

As per the family's wishes, a private celebration of life will be held in John's honour. As an expression of sympathy, donations to Haliburton Highlands Health Services Foundation would be appreciated by the family. Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to the HALIBURTON COMMUNITY FUNERAL HOME 13523 Hwy. #118, Haliburton, Ontario (705) 457-9209.
