Kavanagh OwenKAVANAGH, Owen T. - Owen T. Kavanagh, age 86, of Toronto, Ontario, Canada passed away in the early hours of the morning on Friday June 21, 2019.

Born October 20, 1932, in Malvern Jamaica, he was the son of Austin Kavanagh and Marjorie Holness.

Owen was an avid athlete as a young man, playing football (soccer) for his high school. After graduation, he moved to England for a few years and returned to Jamaica where he ran a number of general stores throughout the country.

Upon emigrating to Canada, he started off working for a car dealership and then a furniture store. The entrepreneur in Owen continued to thirst for his own business and he opened a store specializing in floor and window coverings. Over the years this expanded into a general contracting business that he ran until he was in his mid-70’s.

Owen was a kind, stoic man well respected for his grace and generous nature. In his spare time, he enjoyed traveling, sports, politics and spending time with his family.

Owen is survived by his brother Elton Kavanagh and his wife Raymonde Kavanagh, his daughters Laura Kavanagh and her spouse Daniel Gordon and Paula Kavanagh and her partner Jeffery Williams; and many loving nieces, nephews, and relatives.

There will be visitation with the family from 1:00 until 2:00 PM followed by a celebration of life service for Owen Kavanagh at 2:00 PM, Friday June 28th at the Elgin Mills Funeral Centre on 1591 Elgin Mills Rd E, Richmond Hill, Ontario. There will be a reception at the Centre immediately following the service.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Parkinson’s Canada.
