CELEBRATION of LIFE
To his friends and family, Kevin was a kind and generous person. He dreamed big and believed anything was possible. Anyone who met Kevin knew he was unique, one of a kind, and never afraid to be himself. He was always there for you when you were in need, and always ready to invite you into his life as well.
You may have shared his love of Star Wars, danced and sang with him at a show, or just enjoyed laughs and good times. In whatever way you shared Kevin's life, please come share it with us again at his celebration of life.

One with the Force
3 Memorial choices: 1: Definitely any donations to Graves-Hume Public Library in support of programs for kids - these were programs Kevin participated in growing up in Mendota and I believe contributed to his love of stories and creativity.
2: www.safehousepets.org - Kevin and Chas both loved cats and would love any chance to help cats.
3: lasallecountycasa.org - We think this organization represents a cause that Kevin often supported in his own way. Being there for kids/peers in need was so much what he was about, and this is another way he can continue to help.
