I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. May good memories survive for you all in this time of sorrow.RIP Kevin

I met Kevin through Kenda, whom I’ve known most of my life. Kevin came down and built some steps making it easier for me to access my home and fixed my shower so it was tall enough for me. I am forever grateful for his help with these projects as I am no longer able to do these kinds of things.. I know Kenda loved him full heartedly and was great at caregiving to him as he needed it during this last ride. Everytime I come home, I will warmly remember Kevin.

Kevin was one of if not my best friend. This man was exceptional in many ways. He would never say no to helping me or my wife. He was very talented at construction and I have used him many times to help me with home projects. Guess what?? The wind blew down our fence and we were miles away in Hawaii. Guess who fixed it??? The team of Kevin & Kenda. Guess who helped me move to Utah without hesitation. Kevin just laughed and said, ” Guess we are going on a road trip buddy” This man will be sadly missed. We are here in Hawaii right now and still remember the fun we had when Kevin and Kenda joined us here a few years ago. Still remember the two of them booking trips from Hawaii to Alaska and St. Thomas……..took them 5 hours but Kevin stood by Kenda and made sure all the trips were correct and going to happen……..they were a good team and now that part of the team is now gone and free of pain and suffering, I think it is important for all of us to stand by and support Kenda through these tough times. You are and will always be tops on our friends list……..love John and Sheryl

We feel fortunate that we were able to enjoy some time in the mountains with Kevin and Kenda last year. We couldn’t have known they would become such fond memories. We very much enjoyed Kevin, his antics, and his mischievous spirit. Sending out much love to the family and especially to our road sister Kenda. Enjoy the forever ride Kevin!
