His carpentry skills were amazing and there were not many things Kevin could not do when he set his mind to it. Kevin lived life to the fullest, especially cherishing time with his grandchildren. His family described his personality as ‘wide open like a case pocket knife’ when it came to living life and they said he had a huge heart.
