KEVIN EDWARD BOITSON Kevin Edward Boitson, 36, of Conestoga, Pennsylvania and formerly Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada passed at Johns Hopkins Hospital, in Baltimore, Maryland on Tuesday, October 28. He is now with his Lord and Savior after a courageous four month battle with Angiosarcoma cancer. Kevin was well loved by all those around him, and throughout his life has touched many lives with his big heart and strong will. These traits helped him to reach out to so many, and fight on during his battle with a rare cancer, and for this, his legacy will go on forever. Born in Winnipeg on April 7, 1972 to parents Linda Boitson and the late Alan Boitson, Kevin always had a passion for sports and fitness and was raised to share and love others. He loved to play ice hockey, and developed a strong skill at surf fishing in the Atlantic Ocean. It was his dream to be at the ocean and soak up the sun with his wife of almost two years, Brenda. He also loved his job at Rohrer’s One Hour, where he had worked for a year previous to becoming ill. Kevin is survived by his wife, Brenda Lee, of Conestoga, PA, mother Linda, of Winnipeg and brother Ken, of Winnipeg, the Kowalinskis, of Beeton, Ontario and of Toronto, Ontario, the Willsons, of Toronto, Ontario, and the Collins, of Guelph, Ontario.
