(adapted from Whig Standard) It is with sorrow that we must come to terms with the sudden death of Kyle on May 22nd at age 29. Kyle was the loved son of Janice Glasgow and Jim Brohman, and step-son of Cameron Schaefer, also survived by his half- brother Todd McKee of Aurora, Ontario. Despite a lifetime struggle with learning disabilities, Kyle possessed a remarkable intelligence, a passion for sports (particularly basketball) and an innate musical talent. You may remember him playing the piano after next on Sundays; thus the Coldplay song “Fix me” we chose to sing on May 25th in memory of him. A graduate of KCVI, and until recently a Sociology student at Queen’s, his future goal was to work helping troubled young people. Kyle had been coming to next for several years, and always shared his smile, vibrancy and enthusiasm, love, and gentle bear hugs.
Kyle’s family welcome you to ROBERT J. REID AND SONS FUNERAL HOME, 309 Johnson Street (at Barrie Street) on Monday, May 26, 4-6PM. The memorial service will be held Tuesday, May 27 at 11am at Wallace Hall in the John Deutch Cente. Immediately following the service there will be a reception for Kyle’s friends and family at the Queen’s University Club (168 Stuart Street). Those wishing to express sympathy, may donate in Kyle’s memory to the Chinese Disaster Relief Fund (www.redcross.ca/china.html) or to the charity of your choice.
We will remember Kyle at next with a brief ceremony on Sunday June 1st during the service. Anyone wishing to contribute should contact Garry at 613.542.8777 or info@nextchurch.com

There will be several benefits to changing our start time to 10ish: more time in the day after the service; space to lunch together; breakfasting together beforehand; feeding babies and young’uns before they fizzle out. On the 29th we’ll have breakfast at 9:30 before the service. Don’t feel you need to be done in 30, you can bring nibbles into the sanctuary with you.
