We are truly at a loss for words. I met Kevin in my youth; though the years, he always welcomed me, and then my family to his and Burnedette’s home. My recent memory was his beautiful Thanksgiving dinner he invited us to; It was a perfect day, with amazing food. Our lives were touched by his hospitality and kindness. We are forever marked by this loss. Tamara Fury and family

Our memories with Kevin go back ten years or more, when working with him and Michael Mroz at the Custom House Maritime Museum in Newburyport. We were presenting ideas for programs and displays on the Civil War and Kevin was always right there to listen and add to the conversation, showing his interest in history. Over the years it was always good to see him at the CHMM for First Fridays or other events and we always enjoyed chatting with him, even the brief ones. We send our condolences to his family who feel his loss more than anyone else, but wish them to know his life touched more people than can counted, either directly or indirectly.

I’m heartbroken for you and your family . I met Kevin in First grade at St. Bs. He was always so funny and kind. Then we continued to Marian and he brought that same spirit to highschool. He was always so thoughtful. When I met my husband, he had two little boys from a previous marriage who I wanted to impress. They loved animals. Kevin told me that Christine was working at Roger Williams Zoo. Before you knew it, he helped me set up a meeting with Christine so my boys could meet all the animals behind the scene. It was a big hit and my boys thought I was so cool. All thanks to Kevin and his help . Kevin was always trying to help others in any way he could. He has touched so many people over the years and he will be missed. Sending prayers to you and your family. ♥️

I’m so sorry for your loss and I’m deeply sadden as Kevin was such a great guy. I worked with him for years at IBM on the Documentation team. Besides being a great person and colleague to work with I’ll always remember we would take our lunch breaks and head out to the movie theater to watch the latest release of a Mavel movie. He will be missed!

I'm so shocked and sad to hear about Kevin. I worked in his documentation team for many years at IBM, and I remember him as a thoroughly good-hearted man with a great sense of humor. He's gone too soon, and I feel for all the family members, including Logan.
