He struggled with chronic illness for several years. Kevin was a kind and insightful person, with a hilarious sense of humor. He loved to read, and he wrote remarkably well. In his healthier years he enjoyed camping, sailing, skiing, rock climbing, football, and wrestling.
Kevin was a terrific musician. He played guitar in several local bands and enjoyed playing the piano.
