Kevin was educated in the Davidson County Metro Public School System and last attended Pearl Cohn High School. He loved music and was a fun loving, generous young man. Above all he was a loving father, who was devoted to his children. He loved his family and very often you would catch him teasing his nieces and nephew unmercilously. On any given day you could find Kevin walking his children to the bus stop and to school daily, always smiling and not complaining.

Kevin was affectionately called “Kirby” by his close friends and family. He had a passion for cooking and one of his favorites was fried potatoes and onions. He was a loving gentle giant. Gone but not forgotten.
