We regret to advise of the death of Sergeant Jeff Veinot, CD (Ret’d) on 15 September 2024 at age 49 years.

Jeff was a native of Hemford NS. He served his country as a Combat Engineer including a tour on Canada's NATO operations in the Balkans and four tours in Afghanistan. Jeff was wounded on two of those Afghanistan tours but was fortunate to be able to come home to heal. During his Afghanistan tour in 2010 he saved the life of a former U.S. Army Special Operations sergeant, Mr. Cicero, who lost his arm and leg when he fell victim to an Improvised Explosive Device while handling an explosives-detecting dog alongside Canadian troops.

Cremation has taken place. A Celebration of Life was held on 5 October 2024 at St Andrew's United Church, {2045 Westmeath Rd} Westmeath ON.
