It is with great sadness that the family of Kevin Dennis Doiron announces his death which occurred on Sunday, February 28, 2021 at his home in Nauwigewauk, NB. Born in Saint John, NB, on March 18, 1958 he was the son of the late Gerald and Nellie (Adams) Doiron.

Kevin was a very hard working man, who worked as a pipe fitter in the local 213 union for many many years. A lot of people knew Kevin from the billiard scene. He started playing snooker many years ago, has been in Canadian Championships, and loved going to Las Vegas to play. He also played in many Saint John pool leagues over the years and most tournaments throughout the Maritimes. He truly loved the game so much. Most of all he loved being called ‘Papa’ and loved all his girls, they were the highlight of his life. Especially Wendy, the love of his life, his best friend.
