His daughter Jayne “princess” was the light of his life. He was so proud of her achievements and looked forward to her visits and daily phone calls.
Kevin lived in Green Bay near his brother and niece. He loved spending time with his great nephews Kaden and Alex and niece Nicole (Kevin) Craig. He never missed a dinner, school, or sporting event. He also made “good looking sandwiches” for his great niece Gracie.
