Portrait of Kaylin Todd Diggs
A Laugh that was contagious and A Smile that was brighter than the sun

Kaylin Todd Diggs

May 3, 1986 – August 11, 2012
Lived 26 years
Halifax, Nova Scotia
You were more than a Brother - you were my co-conspirator, my defender, the person who knew me better than anyone else ever could. Losing you means losing a part of myself.
Life story

Kaylin was the center of attention in every room he ever entered. He was the life of the party. He was the funniest man you ever met had you been lucky enough to be blessed enough to have known him. Kaylin absolutely adored his Mother and his little brother he was a strongly family oriented.

Kaylin enjoyed music. Good food. Surrounding himself with close friends and enjoying life to the fullest. He never turned down a opportunity to better himself. He would never shy away from a challenge. He would often travel and loved to explore ever since he was a kid.

In his younger years he was in cadets and maybe that helped bring him his love to travel and confidence to trust in himself and never fear the unknown. Kaylin graduated high-school early even while keeping a active social life and playing sports like basketball and for the high-school volleyball team he never let his grades slip and always made sure he made it to school on time.

Kaylin found himself being a intrical role at Miller tire in Burnside for many years even being sent away on all expense paid trips to learn new skills needed for his job. But he eventually outgrew that part of his life and he doubled down. Bet on himself and went back to school to become a electrician many people in the field have mentioned how kaylin stressed things need to be done right! He wouldn't make a mess and would always go the extra mile to ensure the job was perfect.

More will be added to this section as we find more time to update this page. As kaylin is gone in body but every day he lives on through us. Please leave a tribute for kaylin it means alot to everyone still grieving

A butterfly stone that lives up at nite And a crown royal Keychain ive been saving from when I managed the Rodeo bar. Sitting here in my lawn chair with music playing. Some sad. Some of yohr favorites smoking a cigar. Drinking Appleton. Shedding tears and periodic laughter as memories flood my mind. I miss you as much as ever.

12 years since we lost you

We spent the past few days getting you some gifts and doing some work around ypur grave. The kids are asking about you more and more they know who you are when they see your picture they know we're going to visit you when we're driving through east Preston. And it puts a smile on my face hearing them say your name. I wish there was a way for us to be together again more than anything I have been watching our old videos together again it's been a long time since I could do that. They say the first thing you forget about someone is there voice but yours has never left my head it's the narration to my life I miss you bro I'm really sorry I didn't do more to protect you I love you G
